gen.treesitter-ng:4.0.0-beta6 does not work on Windows

Is the treesitter binary for Windows x64 included in gen.treesitter-ng:4.0.0-beta6

It works perfectly fine in Mac and Linux, but in Windows there are serious problems.

Hi @tsantalis thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately I don't have access to a Windows machine to test running gumtree with Windows. Normally, I only rely on tree-sitter-ng (https://github.com/bonede/tree-sitter-ng) through a dependency, I am not sure if there is anything particular that must be done to enable Windows compatibility? Nothing is said on the README of https://github.com/bonede/tree-sitter-ng but it mention compatibility with x86_64-windows ?

OK a quick look into the shadow jar of GumTree indicates the presence of Windows files :

x86_64-windows-tree-sitter-c-sharp.dll
x86_64-windows-tree-sitter-c.dll
x86_64-windows-tree-sitter-cmake.dll
x86_64-windows-tree-sitter-cpp.dll
x86_64-windows-tree-sitter-go.dll
x86_64-windows-tree-sitter-haskell.dll
x86_64-windows-tree-sitter-java.dll

@jrfaller
Do you think there is some relation with
#347
#343

Normally no because these issues were targetting our now outdated python bridge for tree-sitter. In 4.0.0-beta6 all tree sitter handling is delegated to the Java tree-sitter-ng bridge.
