OS X example build failed

[MrRobb]

Hello, I am trying the example:

#[macro_use]
extern crate em;
use em::*;

#[gpu_use]
fn main() {
    let mut x = vec![0.0; 1000];

    gpu_do!(load(x)); // move data to the GPU
    
    gpu_do!(launch()); // off-load to run on the GPU

    for i in 0..1000 {
        x[i] = x[i] * 10.0;
    }

    gpu_do!(read(x)); // move data back from the GPU
    
    println!("{:?}", x);
}

Here's the error.

Am I doing something wrong? Thank you.

Hi,

This is similar to the issue described here on the Gitter chat. The solution was updating Rust to latest version.

Let me know if that works for you!

[Micael106]

the latest version of rust is 1.38.0? doens't work here, in macos high sierra.

I've tried compiling on Windows and Linux on Rust 1.38.0 and build has been successful.

stable-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc unchanged - rustc 1.38.0 (625451e37 2019-09-23)
stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu updated - rustc 1.38.0 (625451e37 2019-09-23)

@MrRobb are you also on MacOS?

However, interestingly, when I look at the docs the error message seems correct. From<proc_macro2::TokenStream> is implemented but not From<quote::__rt::TokenStream>.

I'll try to switch to proc_macro2::TokenStream and see if that can be done without regression when I get a chance.

[Micael106]

I tried several versions of rust and got the same error, older versions and nightly

[calebwin]

I've replicated the issue and I'm really not sure how to resolve it. Digging into quote source code, it seems like there is a runtime.rs module that makes a pub use proc_macro2::*. So somehow that seems to be creating 2 copies of proc_macro2 and that's causing type mismatch errors which the .into() then fails to convert into the correct type.

I don't actually have that much experience with Rust so it would be great if someone could git clone this, change em/Cargo.toml's emu_macro = 0.1.0 to emu_macro = { path = "../emu_macro" }, and try to fix the type mismatch error.

Or, if anyone has ideas for how to fix this, please let me know.

[MrRobb]

@calebwin I am using MacOS Catalina and Rust 1.38.0.

[Micael106]

unfortunately I also know very little about rust to help solve, I started learning this week for a college GPU job. I will use version 0.2.0, which compiled here.

This version uses quote 0.6.13

[calebwin]

@MrRobb @Micael106 I think I fixed the issue; the fix is pushed to the dev branch.

Would you mind cloning it and testing it out? If it works fine, I will probably pull it into the master branch and then publish the fix.

[Micael106]

it's working now. thank you!

[calebwin]

Yay! I'll pull into master and publish an update when I get a chance.

[jkelleyrtp]

Not sure if you've had a chance to pull it in yet, just reporting in that the dev branch works but not master for me

[calebwin]

Yeah. The dev branch works but not the master. I haven't pulled in dev yet.
