PackageCompile do not show the print

[rveltz]

Hi,

After running PackageCompiler.compile_package("Makie", force = false) # can take around ~20 minutes ,

I get the following

julia> data = rand(50, 50);

julia> scene = heatmap(data)
Scene (960px, 540px):
events:
    window_area: GeometryTypes.HyperRectangle{2,Int64}([0, 0], [0, 0])
    window_dpi: 100.0
    window_open: false
    mousebuttons: Set(AbstractPlotting.Mouse.Button[])
    mouseposition: (0.0, 0.0)
    mousedrag: notpressed
    scroll: (0.0, 0.0)
    keyboardbuttons: Set(AbstractPlotting.Keyboard.Button[])
    unicode_input: Char[]
    dropped_files: String[]
    hasfocus: false
    entered_window: false
plots:
   *Axis2D{...}
   *Heatmap{...}
subscenes:
   *scene(960px, 540px)

and no window with the result is opened whereas it is if I run Julia without the -J option. Is it to be expected?

Thank you for your amazing work, btw.

for context: this fallback text is shown if there is no backend display set and no custom show mime method provided by the backend. So the issue is prob somewhere there (e.g. that this information gets lost when compiling)

[rveltz]

the backend gets lost when compiling?

[Evizero]

I do not know. I am just saying something in that corner of the code must get twisted in the process

You could try display(AbstractPlotting.PlotDisplay(), scene) ! I guess the __init__ behaves different under static compilation, so likely the plots display doesn't get pushed

[rveltz]

it works !

[SimonDanisch]

is it faster, though?

Up to scene : yes
