Install vult from native executbale #23

Closed HoRaMusic closed 6 years ago

HoRaMusic commented 6 years ago

Hello,

I m trying to install vult from the native excutable for windows. I try from mingW and windows terminal with 'start vultc' and my antivirus stop the install (then I ve desactivated it). I retried but nothing seems to happen.
I tried by right click on it and run as admin but it oesn't seem to work. When I try to compile vult code I get an error that tell me that vultc is not a valid command.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks a lot.

Let me try to understand. You downloaded the binary file from the releases page right? that contains a file called vultc.exe. That file is not an installer is just an executable. So from mingw you should be able to run it as ./vultc.exe and you should get something like:

vult v0.3.31 - https://github.com/modlfo/vult
no input files

When you compile it yourself following the steps in the README. You will get an executable called vultc.native. And you should be able to call it as ./vultc.native.

OK, I was using start as a good old windows user :) And was thinking it was an installer that will let me use the command give on vultModules page like when installed with npm. I finally cd into the src of the modules, put the vultc.exe in it and recompile the vult sources to get regenerated vultEngine.h and vultEngine.cpp with:

./vultc.exe vult-src/VultEngine.vult -ccode -o VultEngine

Thank you very much, now I can compile from my windows session :) (much simpler for me than in my linux running on virtual box ).
