Cant find project for PackageCompiler

Question

I am trying to create an executable using PackageCompiler.jl. However, whenever I run the command

create_app("src/UnsteadyFlowSolvers.jl","UNSflowCompiled")

I keep getting the error

ERROR: could not find project at "C:\\Users\\Matthew\\OneDrive - Mississippi State University\\Research\\UNSflow\\Ramesh Live\\src\\UnsteadyFlowSolvers.jl"

This is the exact location of the file. For instance:

include("src/UnsteadyFlowSolvers.jl") ; UnsteadyFlowSolvers.julia_main()

works perfectly fine and generates the exact result I would like the executable to return. The Project.toml file is in the current directory if that matters. I have tried an alternate version of the package where the module file is not located in another directory to no avail.

Thanks

Answer 1

 create_app(package_dir::String, compiled_app::String; kwargs...)

  Compile an app with the source in package_dir to the folder compiled_app.

So the first argument to create_app is the package folder, not the .jl file. I'd suggest a ;cd .. to get outside your project folder, then

create_app("Ramesh Live", "UNSflowCompiled")
