nimble build

[inv2004]

Cannot satisfy the dependency on results 0.5.0 and results 0.4.0

[xTrayambak]

Weird. Could you send the entire log?

[xTrayambak]

Could you please check if Ferus compiles now?

[inv2004]

Something new at the moment:

   Building bali/test262 using cpp backend
   ...
   g++: error: Package: No such file or directory
g++: error: Package: No such file or directory
g++: error: simdutf: No such file or directory
g++: error: was: No such file or directory
g++: error: not: No such file or directory
g++: error: simdutf: No such file or directory
g++: error: found: No such file or directory

[xTrayambak]

Oh, you need to install simdutf. I'm sorry, should've made that clear. Install the simdutf library.

[lwhgames]

nimble build doesn't work on Windows neither.

[xTrayambak]

Ah, sorry. Ferus is Linux-only for now. It's impossible to get it working on Windows right now unless a Windows user ends up joining as a developer. I will eventually get it working in a Windows VM after most of my goals are met.

I am on WSL2

I was replying to @lwhgames. You need to install simdutf, that should fix the compilation problem.

[xTrayambak]

@inv2004 Did installing simdutf work?

[lwhgames]

Is there a more detailed instructions to install simdutf ? Compiled from source or nimble install simdutf respectively?

You need to install the simdutf package from your distro's package manager and just try compiling Ferus. It'll automatically pull in the wrapper I wrote from the Nimble Index.

yes, but I got these errors as shown

[xTrayambak]

What distro are you on with which Nim version? It seems like there are codegen errors on the Nim side. Ferus requires Nim >= 2.0.0 and a very old GCC probably won't work either. Also, you seem to be compiling it as root. Don't do that.

Run this command in the ferus repository:

nimble build --define:release

Nim Compiler Version 2.0.11 [Linux: amd64]

gcc (Ubuntu 13.2.0-23ubuntu4) 13.2.0

That should work. Weird. Can you send me the command you used to install simdutf from your package manager?

[lwhgames]

That should work. Weird. Can you send me the command you used to install simdutf from your package manager?

I downloaded simdutf and built from source with cmake --build build and
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/mnt/c/Users/ROG/simdutf/build

I downloaded simdutf and built from source with cmake --build build and export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/mnt/c/Users/ROG/simdutf/build

Weird. Can you try installing the package instead?

there is no simdutf package in ubuntu.

[xTrayambak]

I meant, can you run cmake install or whatever the command is to install a library with cmake?

cd build && make install and nimble build got this

[xTrayambak]

I'm not quite sure what's going wrong on your end. I cleared my compiler cache and fully re-compiled all of Ferus and it works just fine. I'm using NixOS Unstable with Nim 2.2.0 and GCC 13.3.0 (and yes, it worked fine on the 2.0.x series for me too)

[xTrayambak]

@lwhgames I just realized that you're running nimble build as root. Is this intentional?

[lwhgames]

WSL uses root by default, does it matter?

[xTrayambak]

I don't think it should matter but I still cannot reproduce your issue. Use Nim 2.2.0 and see if that works.
