My dub.json file does contain the "libs": ["raylib"] section, so the compiler links against raylib library. Then I built the project and got a linker error referencing a whole bunch of opengl, glfw functions.
Does anyone know what is the problem here?
I am a little puzzled on what to try next, but to build raylib myself from source (I use brew to manage packages).
It seems I need to link Cocoa and IOKit frameworks, but how do I tell this to DUB? I'm browsing the dub documentation and cannot find anything framework-related.
My answer on reddit:
The -framework flag on Mac is a linker flag. Linker flags are handled in DUB via the lflags entry. Assuming XLinker is being used, it should probably look something like this:
"flags": ["-framework", "CoreVideo", "-framework", "IOKit"]
In other words, a string for the -framework flag and the framework name for each of the frameworks you need. Because according to the forum thread below, passing them to DMD directly requires the -L switch (meaning, the library flag switch) for both -framework and the name.
(Ignore the bit about the link pragma in that thread... that's specific to an old build tool that's no longer around).
