In VS1012 and 2013, if a solution has a .vcxproj and a .visualdproj (ie, C++ lib + D exe) in the same solution, the files in the .vcxproj don't display in the solution explorer.
The folders still display, but they all have no files under them.
If I:
1. Remove the .visualdproj from the solution
2. Save the soluition
3. Close and reopen the solution
The solution loads properly showing all the files in the .vcxproj in the solution explorer.
If I then:
4. Right-click solution -> Add existing project
5. Add the .visualdproj project back to the solution
It adds back to the solution properly and the C++ project files all remain visible.
If I then:
6. Save All (save the solution in this working state)
7. Close and repoen the solution
The C++ project files are all gone again.
Something about having a .visualdproj file present in the solution stops VS12-13 initialising correctly I guess?

Screenshot showing the missing files
Here's a screenshot illustrating the issue.

I cannot reproduce this with VS2013 and small sample projects. Can you try to reduce your projects and see whether the problem goes away at some point?

Did this ever appear again?

I haven't had contact with those IDE's for quite a while now, so I haven't been testing these cases.
I'll close this, and we can revisit later if it comes up again.

Arrgh! I'm getting this with Visual D 0.3.43-beta1 and VS2015.

Turned out that this is caused by an unimplemented method in the automation model, that stops asynchronous loading of the C++ project in some intemediate state.
