Cannot be used with Electron on Windows

It would appear that it is not possible to run with Electron on Windows.

When run if built for node, the following message pops up :

App threw an error during load Error: The module ‘\?\C:\Users{SNIP}\rclnodejs\build\Release\rclnodejs.node’ was compiled against a different Node.js version using NODE_MODULE_VERSION 72. This version of Node.js requires NODE_MODULE_VERSION 73. Please try re-compiling or re-installing the module (for instance, using npm rebuild or npm install). at process.func (electron/js2c/asar.js:138:31) at process.func [as dlopen] (electron/js2c/asar.js:138:31) at Object.Module._extensions…node (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:828:18) at Object.func (electron/js2c/asar.js:138:31) at Object.func [as .node] (electron/js2c/asar.js:138:31) at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:645:32) at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:560:12) at Module.require (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:685:19) at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:16:16) at bindings (C:\Users{SNIP}\rclnodejs\node_modules\bindings\bindings.js:112:48)

When I try to rebuild it for Electron using electron-rebuild, the build always fails, due to missing headers and dependencies. Once I manually resolve all those errors and it finally builds, running it for electron gives : “rclnodejs.node” is not a module.

When run for Node, without Electron, it works as expected.

Thank you for your replies. I will keep you posted about the issue, soon I’ll update this issue thread. Also, it doesn’t build for any Electron version, not just the current one.

Hi @fstojanovic, are you able to resolve this issue

@koonpeng @fstojanovic does rclnodejs build with electron on WSL2 Ubuntu 20.04?

Thanks all!
