Empty project doesn't compile

[sigod]

import std.stdio;

void main()
{ 
    writeln("Edit source/app.d to start your project.");
}

dub build produces following error:

.dub\packages\vibe-d\source\vibe\appmain.d(36): Error: only one main/WinMain/DllMain allowed
Error: Build command failed with exit code 1

May be better to replace this code with Hello World example?

The problem here is that the package.json file of that project contains a dependency to vibe.d and defines its own main(). For that to work, it is currently required to add "versions": ["VibeCustomMain"] to package.json. This is a bit unfortunate and just to support the pure static this based initialization as in most vibe.d examples.

But the vanilla package.json should not contain a vibe.d dependency after dub init - did you add one manually?

But anyway, the situation with the VibeCustomMain version needs improvement, not sure how exactly, tough...

did you add one manually?

Yes. Sorry, I forget to mention this.

Closing this issue, as the remaining problem is a package specific problem. Although people are highly encouraged in using vibe, dub should not provide a special solution for it. But a generalization of this problem seems to me a bit to rare, as few libraries will define it's own main().
