Source code not recompiled on change

[carlito767]

Hi,

I recently updated my project to the latest Kha and the source code is not recompiled on change anymore. Here is the batch file used to build the project:

pushd ..
start /B node Kha/make html5 --watch
start /B node Kha/make --server
popd

It seems related to this revision.

chokidar is the dependency responsible for watching for file changes, see if updating that helps.

I updated all modules (including chokidar 2.0.4) but same issue.
Could you confirm you have the problem (to be sure it's not only on my side)?

@carlito767 You can try install old chokidar version and set it in package.json for latest khamake, perhaps it will give some results.

When I come back to chokidar@1.7.0, it works. But it fails with the next release (chokidar@2.0.0).

I can not reproduce your problems but this is a good data point. I'll look into removing chokidar, it also has problems with specific chars in paths which haven't been fixed in years.

@carlito767 You might want to check 15 chockidar commits to identify the problem (this is 4 tests if you start from the middle of the groups)
paulmillr/chokidar@1.7.0...2.0.0
If you find, report the issue in their repo.

Also, try this khamake branch https://github.com/RblSb/khamake/tree/chokidar_fix

I found that chokidar 2.0 supports only posix slashes, so this actually should help.

I tried your fix and it works! Thanks!
