Why is the `shared static this()` not executed?
Run `dub clean; dub test -v` and you'll see that main.d isn't compiled
into the test library.
dub test substitutes its own main() function over yours. In order to do
this, it needs to not compile in your main() and to compile in its own.
dmd doesn't have an option to replace main(), so dub drops that entire
source file.
Yeah. I hate how dub does this. I've been bitten by it on multiple
occasions, and it's really easy to miss that this is happening. It probably
would have been better if it required you to deal with main when the target
type is an executable, resulting in a linker error when you didn't provide
one. Instead, a number of us do stuff like
This should be fixed, as DMD now supports just running the program with
--DRT-testmode=test-only and it will only run unit tests.
