unable to compile WebAssemblyStudio project locally on win10 - Illegal characters in file name

[onelsonic]

I cannot compile a project locally on win10 it says : Illegal characters in file name

[MaxGraey]

I guess this field for filename (<name>.<ext>), not for full path

[onelsonic]

either full path or just the file name without the path will not work on windows 10.

[MaxGraey]

it should works) WebAssembly Studio uses virtual file system which not relate on OS at all.

@MaxGraey can you replicate on win10? From a clean install, a project is not working on win 10 - project will not compile. (when it does on macOS)

Seems like this one is the same issue :

446

Any win10 users here?

In my win10, there seems to be no problem with file path.

It is strange that main.c is shown as "src\main.c" in the project view, and is not in "/src" folder. The problem is probably caused inconsistent path separater, between project view ("\") and WebAssembly Editor (expects "/").

You can manually create "/src" folder and move "main.c", "main.html", and "main.js" into that folder, then it will be compiled.

not ideal but your workaround works : creating the directory /src and moving and renaming the files seems to works. You found what is causing this issue. @nokotan

Your screenshot had me confused as it is the web version, but this workaround works locally.

Your mention helped me understand this problem better, thanks.

I think this is build-time failure when processing templates projects. This workaround does fix this problem?

[onelsonic]

Hi @nokotan yes your code is fixing the windows build when running locally. 👍

[onelsonic]

thanks @nokotan 👍 I'm closing this.
