Trying to build windows docker image from here https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/tree/master/ci/docker/windows but I’m getting this error. Any idea what’s going on?

we do not support building Docker images in CI folder, they are just for internal build processes, so unlikely we could help here

Ok, I assumed they were there so that we can build

deb

and

msi/exe

packages. I was able to build a

deb

with the linux image, wanted to try building an

msi

one too.

nope, you don’t need to use them to build MSI, plugin shall take care for that

I’m playing around with the

examples/todo

and trying to package the desktop module with

./gradlew :desktop:package

and it only produces

dmg

binary, which led me to building the docker images. Even if I’m explicit

./gradlew :desktop:packageDeb

nothing gets produces but the build is a success

sure, to pack msi you need windows machine/vm

So I do need to use them to build msi 🙂

not really - it creates environment for building native parts of the project (Skiko library), creating MSI doesn’t need software installed there
