MInstalled the glfw-wayland package in Arch, and it fixed, but shouldnt silk.net include the libraries automatically?
MDidnt have, i thought it came with the nuget package
Rwhy? those are distro specific
Rand linux people like using their distros libraries
MI thought it was a standard library
Rwhy would GLFW be a standard library?
MWell by standard i meant as it should work on any linux distro, well i am new to linux so there are things that i dont know about libs/deps in linux space yet, in windows you could get a .dll for win8 and it should work on win11
MAnd there is a package called Ultz.Native.GLFW i thought it included all the libraries needed to run silk.net with glfw
Rnever assume anything is standard in an open source forked to hell and back project, that will get you screwed over real quick
Rbeen there lol
MThanks for the tip
MWell anyway i can package glfw with my app? making it the famous single bin publish?
Ridk
Hin my windows build it auto include the native libs
Hincluding linux
His it distro specific as well?
Hlibglfw.so.3
Hruntimes/linux-x64/native
Aare you using
Silk.NET.Windowing or Silk.NET.Windowing.Common?M@grifon.petre Silk.NET.Windowing
Aoh, hm, interesting
make sure the glfw shared lib has been copied to the bin directory
make sure the glfw shared lib has been copied to the bin directory
M@hanprogramer You are right, publishing it copies the libs to the output bolder and i can run without having glfw installed
Hoh cool
Ait should copy it without publishing it
Hyeah I wasn't even publishing it yet
M@grifon.petre Yeah it is not copying to the output folder, copied the contents of the folder
Debug/net7.0/runtimes/linux-x64/native/ into the same folder as the executable and it workedAhm, not sure why that is.
i'm assuming you're using the nuget package?
i'm assuming you're using the nuget package?
Awell
Ait should load from the native diectory just fine
MWell maybe because i installed the nuget packages in another project?
Mi am putting all the deps nuget in the UI project
Athat shouldn't make a difference
Aif the files are in the
native dir, it should be able to load itAi'm gonna load up wayland on a different machine and see if i can recreate this issue
Hcheck ur UI project output folder and see if it has the natives
MWell the native folder exists and still didnt load, and it loaded as an X11 app not as an Wayland app
MNope it doesnt have the folder, but the main project has it, dunno why it was not loading
Athe
natives directory should be in the bin directory of whatever project you're running
Pit's always been weird on linux tbh
Psometimes it works, other times you do have to install it
Pi just put it down to the ridiculous fragmentation of linux
Pyou're on your own!
Afor me, i just tested it and running a brand new window on arch wayland with .net 7 worked absolutely fine, no glfw packages installed either
MYeah, unfortunately linux has that problem 
Awhich distro are you using, seems like arch but is it base arch? because some screw around with these shared files meaning it doesn't always load
M@grifon.petre I am using EndeavourOS
Ayeah i believe that is one of the ones that screws around with these native libs a bit and doesn't like them very much
Aas perksey said that is just what you get with linux, and is also why if you want to support every distro in existence then best of luck (and also why half of games with linux support say they support ubuntu and mention absolutely nothing else)
Rjust statically link EVERYTHING
Hok so
