Dear,

I would like to understand if to have an empty main file ils need to use
unittest.

I explain i have a library with some unittest section

-- foo.d--

void doFoo(){ ... }
unittest{
  scope(success) writeln( "ok" );
  scope(failure) writeln( "no" );
  doFoo();
}
------


to use unittest i need to have main file which import each library
module as

--- main.d- --
import foo1, foo2, foo3;

void main(){}
-------

why they are not a dflag to do this?

Maybe that is me where is use badly d unittest

thanks

A simpler way is to use rdmd. Suppose you have a file called 
history.d with a one or more unittest sections. You could just 
run:
rdmd --force  -g -w  --main -unittest history.d

This would provide a simple main and run the unittests in one go. 
The --force is not needed, but if you have added an import 
statement anywhere it will ensure everything is rebuilt. If you 
have just recently run this command, you can run again without 
--force.

One thing to be aware of, I think when using unittest sections, 
not only are your unittests run, but unittests of all your 
imports.

Thanks
Dan

You don't necessarily need to import the other files. As long as all 
files are compiled it should run the unit tests for all files.

You do need a main function.
