I've converted this section:


"configurations" : [
    {
      "name" : "nux32",
      "dflags" : [
        "objects/coff32/beaengine.o"
      ]
    },
    {
      "name" : "nux64",
      "dflags" : [
        "objects/coff64/beaengine.o"
      ]
    },
    {
      "name" : "win32",
      "dflags" : [
        "objects\\omf32\\beaengine.obj"
      ]


to:


  "buildSettings" : {
    "dflags-linux-x86" : ["objects/coff32/beaengine.o"],
    "dflags-linux-x86_64" : ["objects/coff64/beaengine.o"],
    "dflags-windows-x86" : ["objects\\omf32\\beaengine.obj"]
  },


Because previously the right config could not be selected when the package was used as dependency. But now the object is not linked in the static library produced by the project.

What's wrong in my description ?

neither dflags, lflags nor sourceFiles work. Strangely enough this new section is completely missing in the dub.json obtained after the dub fetch.

Well for starters buildSettings is just a name given to a group of properties. It doesn't actually go INTO the dub file.

dflags is valid in top level config, subPackage and of course configuration.

Thx much, this explains why the JSON object was missing.
