Subject: bug#54766: [PATCH] 28.1.0; Native comp: Inherit working directory for sub processes (MS Windows)
Date: Thu, 7 Apr 2022 14:35:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DBAPR10MB4204B859C1CE03270DDB47C5F5E69@DBAPR10MB4204.EURPRD10.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 369 bytes --]

On MS Windows systems, where the Emacs executable is typically not in the PATH, creating the async sub processes for the native compiler will fail because they are started in a random working directory. The included patch will inherit the working directory from the parent emacs process by setting default-directory before creating the sub process.
