Plugins built with the old WASI toolchain fail to load in the shared-memory browser runtime. This updates the npm package to the published 7.0.0-beta.1 release and pins @csound/wasm-bin to 7.0.0-beta31 and @csound/browser to 7.0.0-beta41, which includes the STK exception-tag fix in csound/csound#3452.

Use the published SDK's threaded Nix toolchain and memory limit. Build the plugins and their static libraries with matching thread and exception support, export the TLS metadata and initializer, and build only zlib's static target. These changes keep the existing CMake targets and add no source patches.

Add checks for the TLS exports and update the rebuild and npm release instructions. Dependency versions stay in the npm manifests so future updates do not need edits across the docs.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • WebAssembly

    • Plugin builds now support the shared-memory runtime and threaded execution.
    • Plugins built for the older non-shared engine are not compatible with the shared-memory runtime.
    • WebAssembly builds now require a maximum memory setting.
  • Documentation

    • Updated build and runtime guidance to describe shared-memory plugin requirements and release steps.

📝 Walkthrough

The WebAssembly build now uses the shared-memory toolchain and configures plugins to link with shared memory and export TLS metadata. Runtime tests check those exports. Package metadata and release instructions are also updated.

Changes: Shared-memory WebAssembly build

Layer / File(s) Summary
Toolchain and dependency builds
wasm/default.nix, wasm/libunwind/CMakeLists.txt, package.json
The Nix build sources the WASI toolchain and SDK from the wasm package, applies exception-handling flags, builds static zlib, and passes the package memory limit to Csound. The wasm package development dependency is updated.
Shared-memory plugin contract
7.x/cmake/WasmPlugins.cmake, wasm/tests/runtime.test.js, wasm/README.md
Plugin compilation and linking use pthread and shared-memory settings. The linker exports TLS metadata, and runtime tests check the TLS initializer and metadata. The README describes the shared-memory runtime and plugin build requirements.
Package release metadata
package.json, wasm/README.md
The package version changes to 7.0.0-beta.1, and the private field is removed. Release instructions use npm version and publish from that build.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to b44f1

The documented package build includes STK, but its WebAssembly link omits the required C++ exception flag. The STK module may fail to build or mishandle initialization errors, so this release is not ready to merge.

- Around line 36-41: Add the `-fwasm-exceptions` link option to the target link
options in `WasmPlugins.cmake`, gated on `LINK_LANGUAGE:CXX` so it applies to
C++ links only and enables the expected Wasm exception behavior.
