Questions

• I wonder if I set the ENV correctly?
• Whether or not I put Ninja into the PATH, I always get this MAX_LENGTH_ERROR, but the package is different.

Hey @CasterKKK, sorry for the late reply! From the error message (error MSB3491) it seems you are still compiling with MSBuild. Which shaderc-rs version are you using? In the lastest version, ninja should be required for you to compile... Could you give it a try by using the lastest version?

Closing given no response for quite some time.
