Launching "LuaRT Studio.exe"

Open gvanem opened this issue 3 months ago • 3 comments

Launching the official package (D/L from Releases) and running this from the cmd-line: c:\dev\LuaRT> "official-bin\LuaRT-Studio\LuaRT Studio.exe", throws up a splash screen an this error dialogue:

Impossible to tell what is wrong due to the splash screen blocking the error-box. Pretty awful design IMHO.

Yes the LuaRT Studio has not been updated since a long time ago...I remember this bug is should have been fixed in recent updates (using LuaRT Studio from LuaRT setup executable)

So how can I build LuaRT Studio.exe myself? I have to say the build under src is totally in the dark. All Nmake commands are hidden. And sometimes a Replace xx shows up because of move /Y! Not cool.

And why are most contents in these Makefiles duplicated? You should use a Nmake include file. E.g. %LUART_ROOT%\Nmake-common.mak

LuaRT Studio is a fork of Zerobrane IDE, so you build the executable as for it (there is no specific informations on how to do it though...).

What I have done is to install msys2 mingw compiler. Then open a msys2 console prompt and go to the LuaRT Studio build\ subfolder and run the LuaRT Studio.bat file
