By "compiled every time", if you're talking about when using the library as a dependency, that's not quite true. dub will compile dependencies on the first run, then only in specific scenarios, not every time. It's really not a big deal. Take a look at dlib [1], for example. On big monolithic library and I haven't seen anyone complaining. But if you really want to, take a look at subpackages[2] in the dub docs. [1] https://github.com/gecko0307/dlib [2] https://code.dlang.org/package-format?lang=json#sub-packages Actually the compiling is fast. But its confusing, that all unittests from all sublibraries are performed every time. I thought with subpackages I can perform just the test from the part I'm working on. But I can't get the right layout for the subpackages. My folder structure looks like extensions/ dub.sdl regex/ dub.sdl source/ regex.d files/ dub.sdl source/ package.d commons.d fileexceptions.d ... the main dub.sdl under extensions/: dependency "extensions:regex" version="*" subPackage "./regex/" dependency "extensions:path" version="*" subPackage "./path/" dependency "extensions:files" version="*" subPackage "./files/" dependency "extensions:ranges" version="*" subPackage "./ranges/" dependency "extensions:arrays" version="*" subPackage "./arrays/" dependency "extensions:types" version="*" subPackage "./types/" eg regex/dub.sdl: name "regex" targetType "library" "simple" subpackages, like extensions:regex, compile fine with dub build extensions:regex but subpackages containing several files won't, like dub build extensions:files Also reffering to them from external projects don't work. Any ideas?
