I call dub from makefile rules and feel pretty comfortable about 
such pattern (apart from being not-so-portable compared to raw 
dub). And building anything via IDE is just asking for trouble :)

Semantics analysis you can get by simply opening .d file in CDT 
project is very limited compared to opening dub project because 
it can't know the import paths for dependencies or pretty much 
anything about project structure apart from opened file. This 
isn't much.
