Project setup for DUB
Hello everyone, I was interested in contributing to the DUB project. So, I forked the repo, installed DMD and libcurl as instructed in the README. I ran build.sh inside the repo. It then creates a dub executable inside of bin folder. After that I was stuck as there was no documentation on how to make changes or how to compile the thing. I then ran ./bin/dub and it started some compilation. The linking also worked. After that I see this : Performing "debug" build using dmd for x86-64. dub 1.19.0-rc.1+commit.20.g14cc8e5: building configuration "application"... Serializing composite type BuildRequirements which has no serializable fields Serializing composite type BuildOptions which has no serializable fields Linking...

LLD-link doesn't work, how do I change linkers?
I cannot do any work, since LLD-link is broken and doesn't want to link for anything. It just gives me a bunch of errors for missing symbols, that supposed to be in the core libraries. How can I set up the Microsoft linker instead?

I'm not familiar with this toolkit, but my guess is that you
didn't pass in a `flags` value and therefore you aren't using the
appropriate overload of the createWindow() function to achieve
what you're after.
The following is from the DLangUI GitHub site
(https://github.com/buggins/dlangui/wiki/Getting-Started). Take a
look at the third argument:
Window createWindow(
dstring windowCaption, // window caption
Window parent, // parent window, pass null for main
(first) window.
uint flags = WindowFlag.Resizable, // various flags - bit
fields from WindowFlag enum values
uint width = 0,// initial window width
uint height = 0// initial window height

In there you should find all information you need.

In addition to that, there are different ways how you can contribute to Dub: - enhancing the dub help on code.dlang.org - finding duplicate/already solved issues on the github issue tracker Especially the issues list is a good starting point for new contributors to get some ideas how to contribute.

Thanks for the reply, Ron.
Yes, as you say WindowFlag.Resizable is the default value for the
'flags' argument in the createWindow call, so that was the
setting I had.
But the problem is actually not in resizing the full app window
(that actually works - including keeping the relative proportions
of the widget children sizes), but rather in resizing 2 widgets
that are separated by a ResizerWidget inside the app window. The
app window size should actually not be affected since, as 1
widget on one side of the ResizerWidget shrinks by N pixels in
height or width (depending on the orientation of the
ResizerWidget), the opposite widget should grow by the same N
pixels in height/width, leaving the parent size unaffected.
I can see that is actually what is coded, but it is not working
when I run the app.
But I thought you may be on to something and I should check if
children widgets of the app window inherits some settings from
the parent, so I checked the WindowFlag flags. According to [1]
you can have:
- Fullscreen
- Modal
- Resizable
However, checking the code there are additional options:
/// window creation flags
enum WindowFlag : uint {
/// window can be resized
Resizable = 1,
/// window should be shown in fullscreen mode
Fullscreen = 2,
/// modal window - grabs input focus
Modal = 4,
/// measure window size on window.show() - helps if you want
scrollWindow but on show() you want to set window to mainWidget
measured size
MeasureSize = 8,
/// window without decorations
Borderless = 16,
/// expand window size if main widget minimal size is greater
than size defined in window constructor
ExpandSize = 32,
}
So it looks like the documentation isn't completely up to date
either. Anyway, I also tried to pass WindowFlag.Resizable |
WindowFlag.MeasureSize as flags argument in the call to
createWindow, but it did not help.
I was hoping for a quick answer on the forum from someone who has
run into the same, but I think I'm going to need to dig into
dlangui code to figure out what is going wrong.

I ran into the same issue. The resizeEvent callback is not
implemented yet. Below is my custom implementation.
