Hi,
I noticed the behavior for dub --single changed. In the past the executable was created within the same folder as the source file. Now it is created in a temp folder. Even with dub build --single and specifying the targetPath "$PACKAGE_DIR" in the sdl, the executable is created in temp folder.
This is an issue for me. I have created for cloud foundry a buildpack. A buildpack is a collection of scripts. One script downloads dmd/dub and compiles the source code. Another script executes the executable.
I have a logic to detect dub.json/dub.sdl does not exist. In this case the d file is compiled with dub build --single.It was straight forward to write a cloud application with the old behavior. But now it seems even impossible to specify that the executable should be built within the same directory with --single.
Is there a way to build the get the old behavior back?
Kind regards
André

Summary: I really think targetPath should never be ignored, regardless
of how dub is invoked.
