StaticCompiler for v1.11

[Thomas008]

So far julia v1.11 rc1 and rc2 are out. Do you plan to have run StaticCompiler for julia v.11? This would be very great! StaticCompiler is an amazing tool. Or do you wait until the stable final version v.11 is being published?

In rc1 I there are problems when compiling. E.g. when compiling
function f() 0 end

I get
ERROR: UndefVarError:validate_code_in_debug_modenot defined inCore.CompilerSuggestion: check for spelling errors or missing imports.

In rc2 I get an error when trying to install StaticCompiler:

This is probably related to #610 and bumping the GPUCompiler version dependency to 0.27.0 should resolve this.

[Thomas008]

Installing GPUCompiler 0.27.x under 1.11 is fine.
However, when installing StaticCompiler I still get the error mentioned above.

[Thomas008]

The reasons seems to be that StaticCompiler takes an old version of GPUCompiler.
GPUCompiler v0.27.x (or higher) work in julia 1.11 (or newer versions).
The current Project.toml file of StaticCopmiler seems to be not made for julia 1.11 (or higher).
It uses GPUCompiler v0.26 and lower.

[schlichtanders]

#170 tried to upgrade the GPUCompiler version and failed so far...
is there any progress on making StaticCompiler work on julia 1.11?

[brenhinkeller]

I'm sure it's possible, but it seems like there have been a lot of changes to GPUCompiler in the interim. If anyone wants to try figuring out what all needs to be changed to work with v1.x of GPUCompiler, it might be possible to get one of the GPUCompiler folks to advise on how best to go about it..
