I tried running the basic example (http server) through the executable version on Windows XP Professional SP3 but got no response.
I’m strange that why `require(‘child_process’)` failed by “Module not found”?
Your Offical Windows release.
Did you find a way to get working with child_processs ?
same problem here: child_processs is missing in windoze

windows support, huge…
This is awesome news
“Windows build”…i.e., a native build? (If so…wow, that was fast!)
Node.exe … #WTAF HUGE!!!
cute, it’s only a .exe!
testing now on windows 7 x64
socket.remoteAddress and socket.remotePort don’t exist in the Windows version (tested on XP)
same issue on Windows 7 x64
Confirm. socket.remoteAddress and socket.remotePort don’t exist in Windows version (Win7 x64).
Same here!
this is true.
the same script running in cygwin / linux enviroment shows the remoteAddress and remotePort.
in windows its just undefined.
Any ideas yet on how to run NPM with the Windows Build?
i am using the python script from https://github.com/japj/ryppi and it works well, but dont forget that c/c++ addons dont work.
On that topic:
Is there any plan on defining a windows build environment for creating c/c++ addons in 0.5 ? I would like to write a zeromq and mongodb wrapper, but would want to know whether there is any support planned for it. I realize this may be a long term thing. But without it node.js will be of limited practical value.
Yes, but we’re several months away from that goal. It might be paired with a replacement for node-waf.
hi guys,
any doc or blog on how to use node.exe … run the exce just a blank cursor … how to start with

nodetuts.com is very good. – no affiliation with nodejs that I know of.
You’ve basically entered the node command prompt, same as ruby and others.
So from there you can do anything that you can with pre-written files.
Simple example would be to type:
2*2
and you’ll get the response.
What you need to do is create a .js file, write some nodejs and run it with
node example.js
Let nodejs stay on window explorer contextmenu.http://hi.baidu.com/vickeychen/blog/item/e19fda546e031441d0090647.html
native node.js for windows is very cool!
On my laptop, simple ‘hello world’ responses are 1/3 – 1/2 slower than with cygwin version, though.
Why’s that?
we can’t repeat
Hi Lent,
I can’t reproduce this, is there somehow I can contact you so we can figure out why this happens? You can email me at bertbelder {at} gmail {dot} com.

I blogged Launch a Node.js Web Server from PowerShell in Windows
http://www.dougfinke.com/blog/index.php/2011/07/15/launch-a-node-js-web-server-from-powershell-in-windows/
How can I shell out to PowerShell from inside JS from within node?
You can’t – at the moment – because the child_process module is broken on windows. When it comes back you can use it to spawn whatever you want.

Any idea on what’s the time frame to fix that?

Seems that the child process on windows doesn’t work. To the extent that if it’s in the code the code doesn’t start, if it’s not then it works (minus the functionality of child processes of course)
