Windows native-image build fails

[RexxLA]

I can successfully build fallback images for the NetRexx compiler on MacOS and Linux X86-64. These fulfil a need, so while I am studying building completely native executables, I will put these out.
On 64-bit Windows 10 this fails in the following way: (I verified the working of the compiler with a c program and the working of NetRexx itself on the GraalVM installation)

Error: Image build request failed with exit status 1

Can someone point me in the right direction?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi @RexxLA
The error reporting of query code compilation on Windows is only fixed on master, See:
See #1675 (comment)

[RexxLA]

Thanks! Are there nightly builds to be gotten somewhere?

[olpaw]

Are there nightly builds to be gotten somewhere?

Yes ... https://github.com/graalvm/graalvm-ce-dev-builds/releases
Unfortunately currently, the native-image-installable-svm for Windows are missing. Likely some copy scripts need to be adjusted. I will let you know when this gets fixed.

[gilles-duboscq]

The latest nightly builds now contain the native-image installables.

For example you can test the latest 20.0.0 nightly snapshot:
https://github.com/graalvm/graalvm-ce-dev-builds/releases/tag/20.0.0-dev-20200204_1306

[RexxLA]

ah thank you so much

[RexxLA]

Oops ... same thing (well slightly different thing because it now reports an actual C++ compile error) with this nightly build:

[olpaw]

@pejovica are you familiar with this issue?

[pejovica]

@olpaw No, I haven't seen it before. But the initial error indicates that a 32-bit toolchain was used, so perhaps that is still the case.

@RexxLA Could you try with the 64-bit toolchain because 32-bit is not supported.
