Error: No compatible solc release could be found with solidity 0.8.x on Windows #49

Closed b-gyula closed 2 years ago

b-gyula commented 2 years ago

Environment

java: openJDK 11 web3j-gradle-plugin: 4.8.8 os: Windows 11

Description

When trying to compile solidity 0.8.x pragma solidity ^0.8.0;

Error

java.lang.Exception: No compatible solc release could be found for the file: ...

Caused

~\.web3j\solc\releases.json does not contain the windows_url for solc 0.8.x versions Probably because solc for windows is released as a single .exe instead of a .zip file

Workaround

As a workaround until it's fixed the solc-windows.exe can be downloaded manually from the solidity/releases page and the executable can be defined

solidity {
    executable = '</path/to>/solc-windows.exe'
    version = '<solc version>'  // like '0.8.11'
}

So that's a solution: just closed without even any analysis or discussion. Is this project abadoned?
