DUB and static libs

[abad via Digitalmars-d-learn]

I have a project which is a mixture of D, C++ and C. I have used 
Make for build automation so far but would like to migrate to DUB.

I have hard time figuring out what to do with C / C++ sections of 
the program. DUB seems to ignore (probably sensibly) everything 
but D source files. I compiled a static library of the non-D 
sections of my program, and now I'd need to tell DUB to include 
the library in the linking stage.

I tried to use "linkerFiles" argument in dub.json but that 
doesn't seem to do anything.

Here's the full dub.json:



{
    "name": "audio_test",
    "description": "audio test.",
    "copyright": "",
    "authors": [""],
    "dependencies": {
	"derelict-imgui": {"version":"~master", "path": 
"./DerelictImgui/"},
        "derelict-glfw3": "~>1.1.0",
        "derelict-gl3": "~>1.0.12",
        "derelict-sdl2": "~>1.9.7",
    },

    "libs": [ "stdc++" ],

    "stringImportPaths": [
        "res"
    ],

    "linkerFiles": [
        "sid.a"
    ]

}

sid.a is the library in question.

Any ideas?
