azul: Build failed with "failed to resolve: could not find `IoReader` in `bincode`" error

@fschutt when i am pointing to wip branch, i am getting different erros.

[dependencies]
azul = { git = "https://github.com/maps4print/azul", branch = "wip"}

     = note: this error originates in a macro (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)

error: aborting due to previous error

For some reason webrender-0.60.0 broke, which isn’t a problem since azul has already been upgraded to webrender-0.61.0 on the wip branch. The master branch is severely outdated, the wip branch works though.

I just came back from vacation, so I didn’t do anything last month. The documentation + installation instructions are horribly outdated, which is why I pushed the README to reflect that.

No, you currently can’t use Azul to build applications, it’s broken. I’ll fix it (on the wip branch) but that still needs time.

I’m on macOS 10.15 with Azul 0.1 experiencing the same issue

I am using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Rust toolchain stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) and I am experiencing the same issue.

I’m on Linux lite experiencing the same issue

Same issue here on Linux Mint Debian Edition 4. I get the same error as @xudesheng is stating when switching to the WIP branch. Visiting the Travis CI build history I was not able to find a last successful build.

Does someone know a commit that builds successfully?

It’s pretty obvious but i have the same issue when using stable-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu

@fschutt As of today, cloning azul and cd azul-dll && cargo install --path . results to:

file ~/.cargo/bin/azul-dll    
~/.cargo/bin/azul-dll: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object ....

Not the expected ~/.cargo/lib/azul-dll-0.0.1/target/release/libazul.so

(Debian GNU/Linux 9.13 (stretch) using clang+±7 as C++17+ compiler and rust 1.49.0)

A minimal example is “building” with a symlink but this is far-fetched and the simplest examples/hello_world/hello_world.rs doesn’t compile.

Not usable for now.

@jim4067 cd azul-dll && cargo install --path . as I said.

I’m Having the same issues, I still haven’t tried the solution suggested by @emirror-de . But I have to express my consern since I’m learning the language and planned a project and was looking for a gui framework and I saw the “are we gui ready yet” website and saw azul first, I was hoping it would work. but for a first impression it disapoints me very much. not that I don’t understand that it’s not that ready but I was hoping it would be usable at least one of the examples.

I was able to build it by changing the webrender dependency to “*” in cargo/azul/Cargo.toml. I will do further testing later this afternoon.

I set as you said and got these errors:
