Hello everybody, I'm trying to bring up to date the build of Ruby for MinGW. Part of this is that I found it performs better compiled with GCC than VC8 (Visual Studio 2005). http://pastie.caboo.se/pastes/95210 I don't want to start another big discussion about what compiler performs better, but just to scratch my itch... I searched the group and found that test-all fails on SOAP tests since you need a previous installation of ruby to do the CGI stuff... The thing is that even I have it installed and available on path (after a make install) still get several failures and at least 50 errors. Found that mix between msys don't blend too well. test-all was trying to run /usr/local/bin/ruby.exe with D:/path/to/lib/webrick/httpservlet/ cgi_runner.rb that path mixture don't work under MSYS. I've narrow and didn't get working just 3 failures: http://pastie.caboo.se/101393 ./miniruby.exe ../ruby-1.8.6-p110/runruby.rb --extout=.ext -- "../ ruby-1.8.6-p110/test/runner.rb" --basedir="../ruby-1.8.6-p110/test" -- runner=console Loaded suite .

Windows doesn't have signal mechanism, so the test should be skipped.

So I must ignore these failures and take p110 with 0 failures?. That's great news, now I could invest some time on getting the dependencies and extensions builds. Thank you Nobu for your time. Luis

It's OK.

My question is with minGW compilation--how do you create the zlib .so file, especially after you've already compiled everything else (and I do have the zlib libraries also compiled with mingw)? there is this ext/zlib/extconf.rb file, but it doesn't seem to do anything. Any thoughts? Trying to put together a minGW release, for fun :) Take care. -Roger

Installed MSYS-1.0.10 and MSYS DTK. Then I followed the steps to install MinGWports and installed as ports readline and zlib (Zlib is official, readline is a patch in the tracket at sourceforge). I unzipped the ruby package and run inside a MSYS console: ./configure --with-winsock2 make At this point you should check the output for 'compiling readline' 'compiling zlib' etc... and see if everything worked. make check (to run tests) make install That will create bin/lib/man/share in the root of your drive (thats because generated make file isn't compatible with MSYS). You should have there a working implementation. zlib.dll will be located at you MinGW bin folder, which is where MinGWport install it. The same for readline. Write this mail from memory took me a few minutes, but compile with VC8 (replying your other mail) is more complex. I could give you a full checkout of my own repo where I was hacking this. Contact me off the list if you're interested. Regards and hope this help, Luis
