Description

the newer versions of the ALloy plugin hook now determine how to execute Alloy using this line:

if (process.platform === 'win32' && paths.alloy.indexOf('.bin') !== -1)

The problem with that is that paths.alloy === 'alloy.cmd' and thus paths.alloy.indexOf('.bin') === -1 You then get this error when trying to compile anything:

[INFO]  Executing Alloy compile: C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe alloy.cmd compile C:\test\appc-bugs\appc-test-1\app --config platform=mobileweb,version=0,simtype=none,devicefamily=none,deploytype=development,target=web

This seems to be fixed in the current build now.
