When are pre-generate commands run?


Official docs say this:

preGenerateCommands	string[]	A list of shell commands that is 
executed before project generation is started


If my memory serves me well I started to use it instead of 
preBuildCommands because they are always executed and, in my 
case, I needed that (to simulate the autoconf/cmake 'file.in -> 
file' idiom).

I have two questions.

be updated, it does not run the pre-build commands. I have some 
pre-build commands that generate data to be imported by the 
main package and thus must always be run for a build. Is there 
a way to specify this?

Dub recursive build and forcing pre-build commands to run

2016-07-08 Thread Meta via Digitalmars-d-learn

I have two questions.

1. Is it possible to build subpackages when dub build is invoked 
for the main package? It's a pain to first do dub build 
:mysubpackage and then dub build.


2. It seems that when dub detects that no dependencies need to be 
updated, it does not run the pre-build commands. I have some 
pre-build commands that generate data to be imported by the main
