When magnetic field is applied parallel to the ab plane in d_{x^2-y^2}-wave superconductors, the transition of stable vortex lattice structure, spatial structure of local density of states, and specific heat oscillation by rotation of magnetic field orientation are investigated by quantitative calculations based on the selfconsistent Eilenberger theory. We estimate how the vortex state changes depending on the relative angle between the node-direction of the superconducting gap and magnetic field orientation. To reproduce the sign-change of specific heat oscillation observed in CeCoIn_5, our study is done by including strong paramagnetic effect. The quantitative theoretical calculations give decisive information to analyze the experimental data on the field-angle dependence, and establish the angle-resolved specific heat experiment as a spectroscopic means to identify the node-position of the superconducting gap.
