@dcodeIO can you tell me what is this LIBRARY_PREFIX.valueOf() and why LIBRARY_PREFIX might be undefined that is making a test fail? I don't quite understand this...

 /home/runner/work/assemblyscript/assemblyscript/cli/asc.js:175
exports.libraryPrefix = __getString(assemblyscript.LIBRARY_PREFIX.valueOf());
                                                                  ^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'valueOf' of undefined

But anyway this asconfig.json actually works now:

{
  "entries": ["./src/**/*.as.ts"]
}

[dcodeIO]

LIBRARY_PREFIX can be an exported WebAssembly global, and the proper way to get its value is to use valueOf, which is specified to return the primitive value of an object, so also works on strings. Not sure why it would fail.

Ok, I don't know either, but I can say compiler actually works. I temporarily use my fork in my project like this:

// package.json
{
  "devDependencies": {
    "assemblyscript": "https://github.com/jerrygreen/assemblyscript/tarball/jerrygreen",
  }
}

Which accumulates both this change and also: https://github.com/AssemblyScript/assemblyscript/pull/1705. And I'm ok with it currently. Maybe I'll figure out what's wrong with this change later. Or not. Will see :)
