propuke / electron-shared Goto Github PK

I tried it in multiple terminals. In most of them, running electron-shared yields no output. On Git Bash, however, it yields a seg fault.

Version: v0.1-alpha.3, electron-shared-win32-ia32.exe

To reproduce:

• copy tests/electron-quick-start to a separate folder named "app"(or just rename it if you're lazy)
• Place electron-shared-win32-ia32.exe in the folder beside "app". Rename it to "electron-shared.exe" for convenience.
• Open git bash here, and type "./electron-shared". You'll get a seg fault.
• Open cygwin here, and type "./electron-shared". You'll get no output.
• Open cmd here, and type "electron-shared.exe". You'll get no output.
• Open powershell here, and type "./electron-shared.exe". You'll get no output.
• Double click the executable. Still nothing.

process.resourcesPath points back to resources in the runtime directory. Apps can't specify files in there :S

This prob breaks auto-updaters and stuff.

What are we to do? Need to route it back to the app directory somehow.

To reproduce:

• Open WSL Bash on Ubuntu on a Windows 10 machine
• Clone this repo and run "make" to build
• Copy or move the resulting "electron-shared" file to the "test" folder
• cd to the "test" folder and run "./electron-shared electron-quick-start"

You'll receive the following console output:

This application requires Electron ^4.0.7

Trying to build this on a fresh Ubuntu VM, but the VM is missing some libraries that this project depends on. Care to share a list of requirements in the readme, whenever you get around to it?
