Electron 33 broken

[danielweck]

The latest NAN release works fine in Electron 32, but now fails with:

In file included from ../node_modules/nan/nan.h:3045:

This follows the fix for Electron v32:

• Support for node version 20.17.0 #976
• replace SetAccessor -> SetNativeDataProperty #977

See: #973 (comment)

[danielweck]

Electron 33 ships with Node 20.18.0:

https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v33.0.0

[agracio]

Electron 33 moved to v8 13.0 while Node.js main is currently on v8 12.9, perhaps someone can create a working fork that addresses the problem?
Unless by some miracle Node.js moves to v8 13.0 for its v23 release I do not think nan will address the issue themselves.

[danielweck]

Great point @agracio ... pinging @toshiyuki-rs @oc-soft @kkoopa @bugsounet

[agracio]

You should not ping nan maintainers as they have been quick to point out that they do not support and have no intention to support Electron in the future.

[danielweck]

Apologies, I thought you were the NAN maintainer :) 👍 (very quick response indeed, thank you)

Well, my workaround is to comment #include nan_scriptorigin.h in nan.h:

nan/nan.h

Line 3045 in f5921c7

#include "nan_scriptorigin.h" // NOLINT(build/include)

(I do this with sed from my package.json postinstall)

Closing the issue now.

[kkoopa]

It is probably this commit. 0151569 I will get around to it at some future time.

[agracio]

Thanks!

[agracio]

@danielweck could you share your package.json script with postinstall

[kkoopa]

And can someone with Electron 33 confirm that applying 0151569 resolves the issue?

[agracio]

Will do but give me about 30+ minutes.

[danielweck]

@danielweck could you share your package.json script with postinstall

Not pretty, quick and dirty, but works in MacOS and Linux:

"postinstall": "sed 's/^#include .nan_scriptorigin\\.h./\\/\\/ #include nan_scriptorigin.h/' ./node_modules/nan/nan.h > ./node_modules/nan/nan.h.new && mv ./node_modules/nan/nan.h.new ./node_modules/nan/nan.h"

[agracio]

And can someone with Electron 33 confirm that applying 0151569 resolves the issue?

It absolutely does, tested Electron 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33 that are supported by nan 2.22.
