TypeError: memory_allocate is not a function

[LinusU]

It seems like my compiled wasm file doesn't export e.g. memory.allocate. I'm getting the following error when trying to use e.g. newArray(...):

     TypeError: memory_allocate is not a function
      at Object.newArray (node_modules/assemblyscript/lib/loader/index.js:114:15)

Logging out the exported names shows this:

{ memory: Memory [WebAssembly.Memory] {},
  table: Table [WebAssembly.Table] {},
  decodeBmp: [Function: 32] }

(decodeBmp is the function I'm exporting with export function decodeBmp (...) { ... })

I'm probably missing something simple? 🤔 😄

Looks like your version of the loader is outdated. That changed to memory.allocate.

memory_allocate is just the name of the local variable, it's trying to read memory.allocate:

(the console.log is added by me)

[dcodeIO]

Ah, try export { memory } on the TS site.

[LinusU]

Yes 🙌, that fixed it!

Should we add this to the documentation somewhere, or have I simply missed it?

There is a mention in the loader's README at newString, but maybe that should be more prominent
