scala-native support

#69

[olafurpg]

Nice! Is there an expected release date? I'm in the process of porting fastparse to native and the module fastparseByte has a dependency on scodec-bits.

Running test from coreNative project fails b/c it tries to build src/test/scala directory. Seems like we need to disable test compilation completely in coreNative project.

Also, running ./nativeTest/target/scala-2.11/nativetest-out results in a segmentation fault. Any ideas?

[olafurpg]

Hmmm. It should be possible to setup the build so coreNative/test works as expected, let me see what I can do about that.

I'm unable to reproduce,

$ time ./core/native/target/scala-2.11/scodec-bits-out
...
./core/native/target/scala-2.11/scodec-bits-out  0.01s user 0.00s system 43% cpu 0.025 total

What OS are you using? iirc, there were some problems with Arch Linux.

That would be great!

What OS are you using?

OS X 10.12.5. I had to run brew install bdw-gc to get coreNative to build.

I opened #75. coreNative/test runs in 2.11.11 and does nothing for other scalaVersion. With sbt-doge, it's possible to make the build configuration a bit simpler but I didn't want to add a build plugin.

I'm on OS X too, weird. I don't know enough about native to give pointers.
