Sound like the best solution. Using dub seems to be the best way for build D apps, libs and even ddox. Having built-in linting with a proper return value and some usable output formats would make it perfect.
That said, we are just at the starting point of using d-scanner in CI. There might be here and there missing features.
That would be no problem, as long as things are evolving ;-)
Contribution in form of suggestions or even pull requests are highly welcome.
Yes, there are still some ideas. E.g. some kind of support to directly compile C source files and link their objects with the rest would be fine. It turned out, that sometimes it is much easier to have some thin C layer to call other libs, and just call the extern(C) wrapper function. This gives better control. For now, we use the preBuild/preGenerate hooks to call make on such files.
