dub project fails to build in OSX

[extrawurst]

a simple dub project using vibe.d (adding libevent dependency) that builds perfectly fine using "dub build" on the shell fails to build in mono-d:

[...]
Compiling...
Linking...
ld: library not found for -levent
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
--- errorlevel 1
FAIL .dub/build/application-debug-posix.osx-x86_64-dmd-F9DDB1DF54A2C27A9DBD2E393EAE0491 s4client executable
Error executing command build: Link command failed with exit code 1

Exit code 2
Build complete -- 1 error, 0 warnings

I think this is actually probably a DMD configuration error rather than an issue with Mono-D, does DMD's configuration include the proper OSX path for libevent?

I already proposed to have a manual dub-script that just puts some LD_LIBRARY_PATH into the dub call before actually invoking dub.

[extrawurst]

if it was a dmd configuration problem why does dub called directly on the shell work ?

[extrawurst]

well no idea.. i tried to bridge the dub call vom XS through a script without success. i created this script as a first step now:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH;/usr/local/lib"
/usr/bin/dub

but buidling now stops to work completely:

Building: s4server (Default)
Performing main compilation...
/Users/stephan/dub_run.sh build "s4server"
Exit code 255
Build complete -- 1 error, 0 warnings

Now mono-d is able to handle shell scripts and even shebangs. Please update & try it again :)

[extrawurst]

awesome that does the trick. now what do we do to make this transparent for the ordinary user ?

[aBothe]

Make it a known issue and put it into the mono-d wiki entry :D

[extrawurst]

cant mono-d ship with that script for osx ?

#!/bin/sh
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH;/usr/local/lib"
dub $*

This was my script btw.

[aBothe]

Nope, I don't want to have any further external resources/files to be installed anywhere.

[extrawurst]

anyway. thanks. will you close this once it is documented somewhere ?

I've put a link on to the wiki page.
