different node.js versions ?

[ghost]

Is it possible to compile against any node.js version or only special ones hosted for/by nodec? Where to get these?

I have tested nodec now for the first time and i am happy - it works like a charm... But, why and how it uses node versions? Node on my system for testing was 8.9.4, running the binary gives me 8.3.0.

Can you explain me in short why we cannot use different versions? On node.js, theres a big cry for security vulnerabilities and other things have to be up to date :-)

@BenGermany I have got it. Update node.js to v8.9.4 You can use my personal repository : https://github.com/zhoutk/node-packer Just clone the repository and use bin/nodec The method is : download and cp node.js source to node of this project, modify codes according to author's trace in git.

With the release of Node.js 10 LTS, you may come to my repo here: https://github.com/slee047/node-packer

Look for Series 10 branch (Release 1.6.0-10.13.0 given that the Nodec itself is on 1.6.0) as the master branch was meant for Node.js 8.
