Building EIM from Source for Windows

[bewster]

I didn't want to create a GitHub issue, but unsure if this is a suitable forum for this type of question?

I am new to all this Rust and toolchain. So unsure if I am building, locally, correctly under Windows 11.
There might be some gaps in the documentation.

Checking out the master branch. I can get it to run the GUI application in development mode, using:

Code: Select all

cargo tauri dev -- --bin eim

The issue I run into is starting the easy installation results in:

Code: Select all

Error Details:
Installation failed with exit code: 101

I tried a build under WSL, and this works fine, no error.

FYI: I was trying to build from source, as I am having an issue with using the EIM to install on a specific corporate workstation - and thought by investigating the source I might be able to understand the issue I am having, and either fix or raise a related GitHub issue.

I did create a GitHub issue, https://github.com/espressif/idf-im-ui/issues/590, and the result is it is a bug and not something I was doing wrong.
