link problem on windows

[coolit]

On win10 with the "button" example, I think I have installed windows sdk.

• But sometimes the link just failed during the build process. The error was:
  Non-UTF-8 output: LINK : fatal error LNK1104: \xce\xde\xb7\xa8\xb4\xf2\xbf\xaa\xce\xc4\xbc\xfe\xa1\xb0D:\rust_build\all\release\examples\button.exe\xa1\xb1\r\n

• And if I rebuild, it will fail again, unless I rename the target exe file and rebuild again. Btw, the target exe file cannot be deleted, but can be renamed.

After reinstalling windows SDK following this instructions:
rust-lang/book#2389
The unstable link problem seems to be gone in most cases, but still will occasionally occur, e.g. when I switched to another font.

This is very interesting. I'm curious if anyone else can repro this. I'll respond here if I can.

I'm curious if you still have issues if you use the pre-packaged rust version of LLD. We just switched our config to use that.

#150

I booted into windows and I haven't been able to repro yet.

I haven't been able to reproduce it. I believe I have SDK 10.0.18362.0

Cool. im down to leave this open for a few days to see if anyone else hits the issue. Otherwise I'll probably close this.

After revisiting this post rust-lang/book#2389 and adding the English lang pack, now the err changed to:
fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'D:\rust_build\release\examples\button.exe'

How to repro:
Using the button example, switch between the two fonts until the error occur (sometimes it will appear easily, sometimes after several tries). You can find the second font here: #112
font: asset_server.load("assets/fonts/FiraSans-Bold.ttf").unwrap(),
font: asset_server.load("assets/fonts/simhei.ttf").unwrap(),

Edit:
The error seemed to only occur under Clion terminal. If I used windows terminal, no err occurred. So maybe it was because the old binary was still occupied by some Clion thread.

But the interesting thing is no such error occurred to other projects when using Clion terminal.
