6292 :: Hotcodereloading not working out of the box on OSX

• JohnLuck (orginal) [2020-05-04T09:34:31+02:00] view original

  Whenever I try to compile anything with --hotcodereloading:on I get the error that libnimhcr.dylib is missing. I tried to google it but nothing useful showed up. I come from python and dynamic languages, not C or C++, so I am not sure if there is something obvious I am missing.

  I am on OSX, Nim 1.2.0

  Any help appreciated.

  https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/hcr has instructions for compiling that library.

  Thank you, I got it working in a hello world program, but for my main project I now get the error below. I am not sure what is causing it, but I think I will wait with hcr until it is a bit more stable
