Re: [racket-users] raco distribute help

[Dmitry Pavlov]

Deren,

In addition to what Matthew has said, I guess you need to have a 'main' module 
in your language, and provide it to raco exe, too. It can be a dummy module or 
not. The requirement of such a module is unclear to me, but it exists.

Here is my working script to pack a standalone interpreter of a language 'slon' 
on Windows:

raco exe -o slon-racket ++lib slon/slon-language ++lib slon/lang/reader ++lib 
slon/main slon-interpreter.rkt
raco distribute slon-racket slon-racket.exe 

Regards,

Dmitry

You'll need to tell `raco exe` that you plan to use the `#lang` modules
at run time. Use `++lib` to add the language's module, but note that
you may need to specify the language's reader module specifically.

[racket-users] raco distribute help

[Deren Dohoda]

Hi everyone,

I'm having a hard time understanding the docs for raco exe and raco
distribute.

tl;dr main.rkt has to (dynamic-require user-selected.rkt) and
user-selected.rkt is written in a different #lang and requires a file from
this program. How do I glue these pieces together for raco exe / raco
distribute?

My program has two things which seem to be hanging me up. The first is that
a file is grabbed with (dynamic-require) based on a path obtained by the
user with (get-file ...). This file is written in a different #lang and
uses (require ...) for some syntax transformers.

The exe builds alright but chokes when used because it can't find the #lang
and can't find the (require ...).

Ideally the file which is given to (dynamic-require ...) could be in any
folder the user chooses, but then the (require ...) statement would be all
over the map and I don't understand what I'm supposed to do to resolve
this. If it helps, the file is already required by the program and isn't
used only by the user-selected file. ++copy-collects doesn't seem to grab
#lang folders correctly or I don't understand how to use it.

Can someone give me some guidance here?

Thanks,
Deren
