Same issue with 1.24.0, but with "encoding/json" instead.

kettek · 2025-02-11T23:00:43Z

Updating golang.org/x/tools in wails itself might fix this, see BurntSushi/go-sumtype#17 (comment)

kettek · 2025-02-11T23:15:15Z

I can confirm, updating golang.org/x/tools/ to v0.30.0 for cmd/wails fixes the problem.

In the interim, this can be done by cloning the wails repo, entering the v2 dir, issuing go get golang.org/x/tools, go mod tidy, go build ./cmd/wails, and then copying the wails binary to your go bin directory.

could you show the full solution

symball · 2025-02-12T09:06:03Z

Confirming what Kettek suggests as a fix.

@OlongCrab specific terminal commands are as follows

git clone [email protected]:wailsapp/wails.git
cd wails/v2
go get -u golang.org/x/tools
go mod tidy
go build -o wails ./cmd/wails

This will create the artefact which you then move to your GOBIN path

Snider · 2025-02-12T16:15:41Z

GHA is down https://github.com/dAppServer/wails-build-action/actions/runs/13289752009

I can't adjust people's code like this, so we need a fix as soon as possible @leaanthony @stffabi .

leaanthony · 2025-02-12T19:06:43Z

I'm getting suspicious of Go's backwards compatibility claim 😅

For now, we don't support 1.24

leaanthony · 2025-02-12T19:44:41Z

go install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v2/cmd/[email protected]
For some reason, @latest isn't working for me. Must be going off commit dates or something.
I'll release v2.10 over the weekend.

The GHA default is now 1.23, not ^1.20, people can and should set their own versions anyways :)
