Issues with Haxe 4 preview 5

hansagames commented 5 years ago

Hi, noticed that in haxe 4 preview 5 there is issue with buddy tests. Maybe its too fast adoption but still.

var buddy_SpecStatus = $hxEnums["buddy.SpecStatus"] = { __ename__ : true, __constructs__ : ["Unknown","Passed","Pending","Failed"]

ReferenceError: $hxEnums is not defined

Buddy is not the only lib impacted, haxe 4 preview 5 is problematic in this regard. The change on hxEnum has since been reverted in haxe 4 dev.

I don't know if buddy could/will find a way to make it work for preview 5, but it could be a good idea to skip preview 5 and wait for preview 6.

@kLabz thanks for the info, will revert back to preview 4 as I am finding a lot of errors for different libs with preview 5

This should be fixed in one of the 4.0 RC versions.
