thank you Dukc

it worked, i should adapt with this different naming style. (as comparing to C#)
[yesterday]
but today, when i went to create another project, it failed.
i get this message:

D:\ashit\documents\D\simpled>dub init simpled dlangui
Couldn't find package: dlangui.

it works without the "dlangui" option, but then when i execute run command:

D:\ashit\documents\D\simpled>dub run
Performing "debug" build using dmd for x86.
simpled ~master: building configuration "application"...
source\app.d(2,8): Error: module dlangui is in file 'dlangui.d' which cannot be
read
import path[0] = source
import path[1] = C:\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobos
import path[2] = C:\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\druntime\import
dmd failed with exit code 1.

this is the path i have extracted the dlangui files:

    D:\ashit\software\D Compiler\DlangUI\dlangui-master

how to define dlangui for DUB?

The DlangUI docs has you covered with everything you need to set it up both on the github README file or the github wiki.

Its just:

dub init PROJECT_NAME dlangui


This will create project and add dlangui as dependency. Creating a project requires Internet connection to download the dlangui package. You may also add dlangui as a dependency in the project's dub.json file.

Just to be clear, there's no Java code in DWT. Everything is ported to D.

thank you aberba

ok, so this is useless to me.
i want something fully functional stand-alone tools.
i have no internet connection there.

thank you everybody for your time to answer my questions.

Don't worry, DlangUI is stand-alone: you only need the connection to download it, but not to use it nor to compile with. Dub will function without connection if you have already downloaded the needed dependencies.

If you have no connection at all for the device you develop with, you can use dub add-local to register a package you have fetched manually.
