But how am I supposed to tell dub this, so it passes this
information to the linker??
I guess I should set "libs" in dubs.json
IIRC your guess is correct. "libs" is passed directly to linker
and is the only way to do it, so you just do smth like this
"libs" : ["-L/usr/lib/llvm-6.0/lib/", "libLLVM-6.0"]
note that this -L will be extended for linker as -L-L...
(also note that you can do platform specific way with
"libs-windows", "libs-posix"? to pick proper paths per platform)
Though I'm not a linux pro and don't remember if linking to .so
is same as linking import library, if this is not the case you
just need to set RPATH or whatever it is so it can find dynamic
lib.
