John Konecny (Mar 05 2025 at 14:12): John Konecny (Mar 05 2025 at 14:12):FYI it looks like there were breaking changes make to the build.zig.zon file for zig v0.14.0.
When you run zig build you'll get an compiler error.
"expected enum literal"
/path/to/folder/build.zig.zon:9:13: error: expected enum literal
.name = "thing",
Someone made a git issue asking about it too
Anthony Bullard (Mar 05 2025 at 14:15):Looks like we just need to remove the quotes from the name field
John Konecny (Mar 05 2025 at 14:19):It also looks like they added a .fingerprint field too. It's probably quick to fix, but I did quite a bit of cursing this morning so I figured I should make everyone aware of the issue. :laughing:
Anthony Bullard (Mar 05 2025 at 14:20):Thanks for that! I have no plans to move to 0.14.0 until it's our minimum version
Anthony Bullard (Mar 05 2025 at 14:31):Actually, this might make me change my mind
Anthony Bullard (Mar 05 2025 at 14:32):Would be very useful since zls is so useless
John Konecny (Mar 05 2025 at 14:34):Does the new version have a built in language server?
Anthony Bullard (Mar 05 2025 at 14:50):No
Anthony Bullard (Mar 05 2025 at 14:50):ZLS is still a separate project
Brendan Hansknecht (Mar 05 2025 at 16:40):We also need to update roc-bootstrap and our other depa before we can update to 0.14.0
Brendan Hansknecht (Mar 05 2025 at 16:41):Though I don't expect that to take too long
Anthony Bullard (Mar 06 2025 at 10:34):Just realized I didn't paste the link to the section that excited me - which is incremental compilation for zig check workflow
John Konecny (Mar 06 2025 at 10:36):I was wondering what I was missing :laughing:
Luke Boswell (Mar 06 2025 at 10:43):You're killing me Anthony...
Luke Boswell (Mar 06 2025 at 10:44):https://ziglang.org/download/0.14.0/release-notes.html#Incremental-Compilation
Luke Boswell (Mar 06 2025 at 10:44):Found it
Anthony Bullard (Mar 06 2025 at 10:54):Oh thanks Dude! Didn't expect you to link it, but I appreciate it
Anthony Bullard (Mar 06 2025 at 10:54):I think uptaking that will really pay off as the compiler grows
Brendan Hansknecht (Mar 06 2025 at 16:47):zig build check is that option in our compiler currently
Brendan Hansknecht (Mar 06 2025 at 16:48):Theoretically in 0.14.0 zls also can run that step to understand your code and comp time types better
