MARA’S ENDLESS OC LIST ✦  Wynn Darling  🦊

“That girl is even more irresponsible then we are - I think I’m in love.”

though she was the oldest of the Darling triplets - beating Walt and Puck by just thirty seconds - Wynona ‘Wynn’ Darling carried none of the responsibility that might have come with being the eldest. Wynn was a master at pranks, a little bit of a thief, and someone who cared for her siblings more than anything.

Their little trio was all she’d ever needed - until the VKs arrived at Auradon, and Wynn felt an unfamiliar and tangible excitement. 

She was about to get into a lot of trouble.

Building CoApp and CoApp.Powershell turned out to be a matter of doing some initial steps - like downloading all the nuget packages as they didn't during the build. I've submitted a pull request now with a set of instructions: https://github.com/coapp/coapp.powershell/pull/74

During the building I also accidentally generated a bad package version number string. This caused NuGet to barf, but not in a way that CoApp managed to understand. The upshot is that the error message was swallowed. I've fixed that code. It is on my branch on CoApp. Pull request to be submitted when we get all the way through this.

Trying to better understand building the CoApp stuff:

The solution ClrPlus seems to build without errors. One minor warning that means nothing... Both Debug and Release builds.

Building the CoApp.Powershell guy - that seems to cause the trouble.

The first project to build ("Unused") fails with some command called "handle". But it doesn't call a VSIDE error when you right click and build!

Handle looks like a sys internals tool! Ah ha! Time (I guess) to start keeping track of this stuff we find out?

Ops. Looks like our clone is way behind. Did a merge (git fetch upstream, git merge upstream/master). Cool that worked without totally blowing away the local repro! However, lots of changes came down.

Definitely have to build the solution twice due to a nuget issue. So that should be in the instructions.

The unused variable warning is still present. Moving right along... Still have the failure with handle. May actually be a non-failure in that I don't have anything open. But still.

Get warnings about missing references that don't seem important. Removed them from my copy:

Icon.Zip

MSBuild.ExtensionPack

MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Git

MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Loggers

MSBuild.ExtensionPack.TaskFactory.Powershell

The build seems to go just fine now. But...?

When I build the release version, however, things don't go so well. Turns out that it needs the above for the release version. Adding nuget packages:

DotNetZip

MSBuild.ExtensionPack - and the references had to be inserted by hand here as they were put in a "tools" directory. So clearly the issue is the hint path isn't right. It should be made relative.

Build also "fails" with a x86 warning - the nuget.exe is referenced. But that is probably just so that an item gets published. So we can ignore that safely. Though we should record that!

So we will need to undo this change to the file and then fix the path to be relative (I guess).

And there it is: https://github.com/gordonwatts/CoAppDemoPackage - with instructions.

Having some real trouble getting ROOT into a nuget package. Mostly right now, it is the CoApp tools. So lets create a little side specialized project that anyone can look at.

Contains an include file

Builds a dll

Contains a directory etc/content.txt that has to be in the resulting app's code.

And put that on github.
