#Zig Commandline doesn't recompile?

So i have this file that i want to test,
it has a datastructure and then just

test "the_test" {
...
}

When I change something and wanna try to see if it now works, it just doesn't return anything. (see pic)

I do change things in the file tbc, and the test for sure isn't passing.
It sometimes does actually recompile but only sometimes.
How does this happen?

You can run zig test octtree.zig -femit-bin=octtree.exe --test-no-exec and ./octtree.exe separately to see whether the compiler or the test is crashing

but it sometimes does succeed

#

with the exact same code and give me normal compiler errors

then you are triggering a compiler bug and should create an issue with reproduction steps

ic, ok thx

# 
const std = @import("std");

const Fizz = struct {
    pub const FooBar = union(enum) {
        b: ?*[2]FooBar,
    };

    pub fn foo() !void {
        var foos: [1]FooBar = .{FooBar{ .b = null }};

        for (&foos) |*n| {
            n.* = FooBar{ .b = null };
        }
    }
};

test "simple test" {
    try Fizz.foo();
}
``` smallest example i can get il make gh issue now

nice, you crashed llvm

stiff raft
#

oh?

orchid herald
#

fwiw the workaround is zig test octtree.zig -fstrip

doesn't show any errors so i don't think so

#

it never even shows "LLVM Emit Object..."
