Experience from Celerity and Ruptura shows that this should be fairly straightforward to do even in the short term.
The main annoyance will be working around dotnet/sdk#19929. We need to package the compiled native libraries in runtimes/<rid>
folders in the Vezel.Cathode package; we do something similar for analyzers already, so this isn't too hard. We would also need some hacks to include the native libraries when building the sample projects.
(The native library will be written in C initially and ported to Zig once Zig reaches 1.0.)
This will run into the same problem as vezel-dev/celerity#101. Or not.
This will mean temporarily dropping support for musl-based systems (e.g. Alpine) due to https://github.com/vezel-dev/zig-sdk/issues/83, but that's probably not the end of the world. I doubt many people would use Cathode in Docker containers or whatever.
Turns out I was wrong about SIGCONT
; that race condition just cannot be fixed.
This would have a number of benefits:
SIGCONT
) will be resolved.The native library would probably be written in Zig or C. For this to be as painless as possible, we would need alexrp/zig-msbuild-sdk#8 (and by extension dotnet/sdk#19929) to be implemented first.
