xmake plugin cannot activate in wsl #35

Closed caizongchao closed 4 years ago

caizongchao commented 4 years ago

environment: vscode 1.45.1, ubuntu 20.04 in windows 10 wsl, xmake vscode extension 1.3.4

While opening a project folder from within wsl, xmake buttons does not appear on the bottom status bar. In vscode developer tools ->console, I can see an error message which says 'cannot spawn xmake, ENOENT'.

I guess this is because xmake is installed in user's home directory and vscode cannot find it. I moved xmake files from ~/.local/xmake to /usr/local and then the problem is gone.

Since xmake is recommended to be installed locally, I'd like to know whether there's another solution to this issue.

thanks

You can use xmake.exe installer to install to c:/program files/xmake and it will add path automatically.

Or attempt run source ~/.xmake/profile?

I don’t have a win/wsl environment now, so I cannot test this case.

I just tried another wsl distribution (https://github.com/am11/VoidWSL) and everything works fine, even xmake is installed locally in ~/.local.

My previous test environment that has problem is Alpine linux (https://github.com/yuk7/AlpineWSL). Another issue in Alpine linux is that xmake cannot be installed via "bash <(curl -fsSL https://xmake.io/shget.text)". Finally I managed to install xmake by cloning and installing from the source .

Thanks for the great tool.
