I am just wondering if there is a reason there haven't been any ready-to-use Windows nightlies generated since the 7th August 2019 (this year).
There have been some fairly major fixes since that time related to Windows as in the UT8/UT16 mess and what was done with Linefeed characters, as well as more general things like making the newruntime work with --threads:on that I would like to try on Windows, but it's not so convenient as I have to compile a clone of the latest source using my pretty minimal machine. The "ready-to-use" nightlies generated lately have been limited to Linux 32-bit/64-bit and OSX, but no windows (64-bit is fine).
If one can't compile these because of bootstrap issues then I won't be able to compile either in any case, but it would be nice to know.
@shashlick: Thanks for the heads-up on the fix; the Windows version nightlies are appearing now, in fact we got two as of last night - looks like @Araq released a nightly that should have been released 7 nights ago that specifically should fix the "newruntime with threads:on" problem. Since I'd also like to try the fix that is supposed to output newline properly on Windows, I'll try the other version first as it includes that fix ;-)
Good luck on the Arm build; no Sqlite for Arm, eh?
@Araq, any plans to do another version 1 "beta" (0.20.4?) release soon, as some of the things that have been fixed lately seem to be "ShowStoppers" such as the above two things?
