Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 22 Mar 10:26

Highlights

Windows binary fix — the Windows release binaries now statically link the C runtime, so they work out of the box without requiring the Visual C++ Redistributable to be installed. lox is now a true zero-dependency, single-file binary on all platforms.

Fixed

  • Windows: statically link CRT — the binary was dynamically linking VCRUNTIME140.dll and api-ms-win-crt-* DLLs, which meant lox.exe would fail to start on machines without the Visual C++ Redistributable. Added .cargo/config.toml with +crt-static for both x86_64 and aarch64 MSVC targets. (#91)

Docs

  • Added Kubernetes CronJob example for automated config backups (#90)
