Cannot build with source on Windows 7 #90

Open thangld322 opened 6 years ago

thangld322 commented 6 years ago

Firstly, thanks for such an amazing tool!

I downloaded and used the Waxeye 0.8.0 on Sourceforce but this old version has an issue that it cannot parse long string:

RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded

Since this version is quite old, I hope that the current source fixed that issue. So I try to build Waxeye follow User Manual guide but I cannot install it.

I have two questions:

  1. Did the new version fix my issue?
  2. How can I build this on Windows?

Thank you so much.

  1. The recursion problem is fixed in the JavaScript runtime, but not in the C runtime. Which runtime do you want to use?
  2. Update the exe.bat with this fix: https://github.com/orlandohill/waxeye/pull/91/files

@glebm Thanks for replying! I want to use Python runtime. Is it fixed in Python?

Hi, Sorry, the problem still needs to be fixed for Python. The current TypeScript code needs to be ported to Python, while making sure the public API remains unchanged.

We're looking for volunteers, if you'd like to help.
