Hi
I have setup a basic project and I try to understand how dependency
tracking works. If I have my app running and I modify a template file -
is vibe supposed to detect that and recompile the app? Because currently
I don't see it happening. In the examples directory I noticed a file
that was commited to the repo:
examples/app_skeleton/source/app.d.deps
It looks like an autogenerated file and when I run my app there is no
dependency file generated. Is that a bug or do I need to run vibe in a
specific way?
The automatic rebuild of the application is a feature of vibedist [1]
rather than the vibe.d core package. However, vibedist is not fully in
shape yet - but it should be ready in the next couple of weeks, as soon
as I find some time for it. I'll then also put up some instructions how
to set it up and notes for some features that they are part of vibedist.
The deps file was just checked in accidentially and is only a left-over
of rdmd. I think rdmd in it's current version does not leave the file
there after compilation so it should be normal that you don't see it now.
