Dartium not executing Dart

[Chris Strom]

Heya,

I know that must be doing something wrong here, but I rebuilt Dartium
and now it won't execute Dart code anymore.

I had a working build from back in January. I did a `gclient sync` to
get updates, then `./dartium_tools/build.py --mode=Release`.
Everything seemed OK, but simple pages won't Dart :(

Running strings against the generated binary shows a lot of Dart is in
there (I see dart VM strings, all of the libraries, etc). But I cannot
get even simple Dart to run, let alone complex Dart.

Any help would be much appreciated!

FWIW I am trying the following page:

<script type="text/javascript">
console.log("javascript is working");
</script>
<script type="application/dart">
void main() {
print("dart is working");
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
console.log("javascript is working");
</script>

The two JS statements work, but there is no output from the dart statement.

Hi Chris,

We just modified this.  For now, you need a bit of JS on the page to bootstrap Dart support.  This is what we're using in our samples:

<script src="http://dart.googlecode.com/svn/branches/bleeding_edge/dart/client/dart.js"></script>

You can see the specifics inside that js file.  We'll keep that up to date.  Long term, this need will go away.

Vijay,

Awesome. Just saw the BuildingDartium wiki edit go through on commits.
That fixed it. Greatly appreciate the quick response!
