I just replied about this on the D debugger list :) "break" and some other commands use "linespecs", not expressions. (Well, in addition to expressions, as you can always "break *EXPR".) See gdb/linespec.c. linespec already handles "." as a separator for Java, so it should be possible to make it work for D. I don't recall the details; this code's gone through a lot in the past couple of years (for the better I assure you :-) Tom
