This is a bug fix release to resolve a regression where a spurious pkgs
directory was being created when any choosenim shim was executed.
Once choosenim is upgraded, simply switch Nim versions and the shims will be regenerated, solving the issue.
This is a bug fix release to resolve a regression caused by changes in Nimble which prevented choosenim from finding the Nimble directory.
The major new feature is that all builds are now static. There should be no runtime dependencies for choosenim anymore.
Changes:
- A critical bug was fixed where choosenim would fail if existng DLLs were present.
- The
update
command will now always change to the newly installed version. In previous versions this would only happen when the currently selected channel is updated. - A new
remove
command is now available. - The
nim-gdb
utility is now shimmed. - Various small bug fixes, #203 and #195.
- The
GITHUB_TOKEN
env var will now be used if present for certain actions. - Better messages when downloading nightlies.
The major new feature is default installation of 64-bit Nim binaries on Windows.
Changes:
- Install latest nightly build of Nim on
choosenim devel
andchoosenim update devel
- Install latest devel commit instead of nightlies with the
--latest
flag - Git based update for
choosenim update devel --latest
instead of deleting, downloading and bootstrapping from scratch - Optionally add
~/.nimble/bin
to PATH on Windows when using the--firstInstall
flag - Fix
choosenim update self
failure on Windows - Fix crash where shims could not be rewritten when in use
- Fix crash on OSX due to an openssl version conflict
