Object/static files, but yes.

Where they go:

Windows: %APPDATA%/roaming/dub
Posix: ~/.dub

You don't need to change this and if you think you do, you're 
wrong :)


2. It is possible to compile subpackage as a dynamic or static 
library and link it to main binary file? Or just better create 
separate dub package and use it as dependency?


Static yes, dynamic it won't link against (some bug last I 
heard).

Have to do that manually.

"dependencies": { "mypackage:subpackage": "*" }

Change as required for SDL.


At first thanks for answers.
So going back to my first question. Code from dependencies is 
compiled with mine project to one single executable?

Understanding how dub works

[datboi via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Hi, I'm learning D (obliviously) and I can't understand how 
exactly dependencies work. I haven't found answers to my 
questions in documentation (or i did't understand it), so can 
someone answer to mine questions?

For all answers thank You in advance.
Also sorry for mine English. I'm still learning it. So if I made 
some grammatic mistakes point them :)
