Failed to load project 'corlib'

[pedromsilvapt]

Just installed the Beef IDE and created one of the samples, but get the following error message:

ERROR: Failed to load project 'corlib' from 'C:\Utilizadores\Pedro Silva\AppData\Local\BeefLang\BeefLibs\corlib\BeefProj.toml'

The correct folder name would be (without the space in the username PedroSilva):

C:\Utilizadores\PedroSilva\AppData\Local\BeefLang\BeefLibs\corlib\BeefProj.toml

I have the same problem but I think it's caused by the localization of the C:\Users\ folder. It shows as C:\Utilisateurs\ on my (French) computer but is really C:\Users\ under the hood. The Beef IDE is looking in C:\Utilisateurs\ when it should be looking in C:\Users.

My username doesn't have any whitespace.

I'm wondering if adding the flag KF_FLAG_SIMPLE_IDLIST in https://github.com/beefytech/Beef/blob/master/BeefySysLib/platform/win/Platform.cpp#L2571 would solve the problem.

I haven't looked at Beef's source code, but I wonder if it would be a good idea to set a custom environment variable to point to that path, either as a short term fix or as a long term one, if people wanted to use a different corlib in the future.

e2799b8 is the fix I suggested. When a new binary gets released I will be able to test it.

Just installed the IDE on Windows 10. It gives some errors at the end of theiInstallation process, ignored that. Opened the sample SpaceGame project, hit Debug and got these errors:

IDE Started. Version 0.42.2 built 4/17/2020 at 12:30 PM.
Workspace closed.
�0|��Created new workspace in 'C:\Usuários\lealcy\AppData\Local\BeefLang\Samples\SpaceGame'�

Starting target without compiling...
ERROR: Unable to locate working directory 'C:\Usuários\lealcy\AppData\Local\BeefLang\Samples\SpaceGame'
Failed to start debugger

It seens like the compiler is having some trouble with localized versions of Windows. Windows 10 don't localize system folders to avoid this kind of issues, but the compiler is trying to localize anyway.

Same problem over here, should be looking in 'C:\Users\merij' but trys 'C:\Gebruikers\Merijn De Klerk'? Any quick fix for now?
