Zig - hello world

Hello world in Zig

PS C:\prj> mkdir hello-world
PS C:\prj> cd .\hello-world\
PS C:\prj\hello-world> zig init

You should see this output during init

info: created build.zig
info: created build.zig.zon
info: created src\main.zig
info: created src\root.zig
info: see `zig build --help` for a menu of options

Run it like this

PS C:\prj\hello-world> zig build run

The output should look like this

steps [4/7] install... All your codebase are belong to us.

Error opening directory '/media/sf_C_DRIVE': Permission denied

I tried to share a folder from Windows 10 host to Kali 2020.1 Linux guest using VirtualBox but I am getting the following error message:

Error opening directory '/media/sf_C_DRIVE': Permission denied

To fix, do:

$: sudo adduser $USER vboxsf

Then log-off then log back in. If this does not work, reboot the VM

Getting similar issue using Fedora 33 on VirtualBox 7.0.12, below is the error message

This location could not be displayed You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "sf_D_DRIVE"

To fix do the following and reboot the VM.

$: sudo usermod -a -G vboxsf $USER
