Could not install the lang ,

[Mehdi-YC]

Describe the bug i could not even install it basically , i installed V in my wsl2

V version is 0.2.4

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: windows 10 ,wsl2 ubuntu20,04

It might be a new feature of V lang that is causing it ?

btw : i want to help make this lag good , i think i can use it instead of nim to create some simple exe for the moment.

fixed it by just adding mut to split_path at line 46

Peregrine is being rewritten in C++ at the moment, so I do not recommend using the current compiler version of the language. You can see the development in the rewrite branch.

As told by @procrastinar , clone the rewrite branch Follow the following steps to compile:-

1)Clone the rewrite branch of https://github.com/peregrine-lang/Peregrine.git

git clone -b rewrite https://github.com/peregrine-lang/Peregrine.git

2)Cd into the directory

cd Peregrine

3)Build it

meson builddir
cd builddir
ninja

This will create the binary of the compiler named ./peregrine.elf in the builddir folder

C++ backend To compile it using the c++ backing just run ./peregrine.elf compile path_to_file.pe .It will create the executable named ./a.out. Run it to see the result. Check the can_comp.pe file in the root directory to know what you can do with the c++ backend at this point JS Backend To use the javascript backend use the following command ./peregrine.elf compile path_to_file.js.pe -js. It will create the javascript file named index.js. Run the generated javascript using node index.js. Check the can_comp.js.pe file in the root directory to know what you can do with the js backend at this point

Use the main branch because we have merged rewrite with main. I am closing it due to inactivity
