Windows webapp now starts, opens a web browser, and ... crashes.
This is a bug in warp or a deep level of the stack. I know that yesod apps have run on Windows before, so apparently something has changed and introduced this problem.
Also have a problem with the autobuilder; the EvilSplicer or something it runs is locking up on that system for reasons not yet determined.
Looks like I will need to wait a bit longer for the windows webapp, but I could keep working on porting the assistant in the meantime.
The most important thing that I need to port is how to check if a file
is being written to at the same time the assistant adds it to the
repository. No real lsof equivilant on Windows. I might be able to do
something with exclusive locking to detect if there's a writer (but this
would also block using the file while it was being added). Or I may be able
to avoid the need for this check, at least in direct mode.
Take a look at how Process Hacker implements the "Search for open handles" function; it is rather close to
lsof. (Unlocker probably does it the same way, too.)But locking (e.g. I think the "share mode" could prevent other programs from writing but not reading) may be more reliable, if a program starts writing to file after the lsof check happens...
