Zap build problem

I was following the instructions on GitHub - zigzap/zap: blazingly fast backends in zig for installing and running zap. I have done this on my work computer without incident and came home to continue my testing on my laptop.

However, on my laptop, after pulling down the code with git, I am getting an error when building that says I have a transitive error which appears to be something wrong with the build.zig.zon file. The issue is that it is the same file at work and I have no idea why it isn’t working now.

Can anyone point me to a solution?

Thanks,

Hello @cybercrypt13
welcome to ziggit :slight_smile:

If you want to use it, follow: Using :zap:zap​:zap: in your own projects
The released version v0.8.0 is for zig 0.13.0

I’m actually using it in their project though. I assumed it didn’t have that entry because I had downloaded their source. They don’t even have a dependency section in the zon file. Wondering why I need to add it when my other computer compiled just fine without it.

What is the output when you run zig version?

0.14.0-dev

Try it with zig 0.13.0, at least that’s what zap says, “it works with Zig 0.13.0”, zig 0.14.0 is quite different from version 0.13.0.

I tried that and same error.
Like I said, my work computer is setup with 14 and it didn’t have any issues. Wondering if I might be missing a package somewhere but no idea what it might be.
