All the examples provided work except the bevy one, 

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: can't open file '.\hot-lib-reloader-rs\examples\bevy\target\debug\deps\systems.dll

Just wanted to say that I've seen this issue (here but not reproduced directly). Hadn't had time to look into yet but it's on my todo list.

Sorry took me a while.

I believe what you ran into is the issue described here: https://github.com/rksm/hot-lib-reloader-rs/tree/master/examples/bevy#library-files-on-windows-get-locked-while-the-app-is-running-and-there-is-a-permission-error-when-they-change.

So on windows doing

$ cargo watch -w systems -w components -x "build -p systems --features dynamic"
$ cargo run --features reload --target-dir "target-bin"

should fix the issue.

Please reopen if the issue is not fixed with the above.
