Debugging support by compiler and platform:

Compiler/Platform Format Debugger Supported functionality
DMD-Win32 OMF VisualD (VisualStudio) Good support: Breakpoints; Stack frames; Mostly pretty names ('.' shows up as '@'); Variable inspection;
DMD-Win32 OMF WinDbg Supplied with the main D compiler zip file download. Overview
DMD-Win32 OMF ddbg Doesn't seem to be working well. Project no longer maintained.
DMD-Win64 COFF VisualD (VisualStudio) TODO: same level of support as for win32?
DMD-Linux DWARF on PE GDB same as GDC-Linux?
GDC-Win32/64

GDC-Linux

DWARF GDB Good support: Breakpoints; Stack frames; Pretty names; Variable inspection;
any? DWARF ZeroBUGS "Modular debugger for C/C++/D programming languages (and virtually anything else that supports Stabs/DWARF debug formats)". Supported debugging functionality??
GDC-MacOS ? GDB Limited/outdated support? According to Jacob Carlberg:

"D symbols need to be prefixed with an extra underscore." "Line numbers don't work."

LDC ? LLDB ?
Win32 ? Mago Mago Debugger is a set of libraries and a Visual Studio plug-in for debugging D programs on Windows. The main goal is to provide a complete Windows debugger dedicated to the D programming language.
