How to compile Ruby gtk with ruby 1.9

Desktop Ruby-Gnome 2
1

Hi
i am completely new to ruby and just started learning. i have picked up
ruby gtk binding for my gui needs. i am not a c programming guru so i am
having a lot of problem compiling ruby gtk. The things that i have
done—

  1. Downloaded ruby 1.9 (rubyinstaller-1.9.1-p378)

  2. Downloaded ruby-gtk2-0.19.4

  3. Gtkmm development package 2.20.1

  4. Tdm mingw Gcc 4.5

  5. In msys executed ruby extconf.rb

  6. Run Make

                 After running make i am having a lot of unresolved

symbol errors and at the last i get the report

SUCCEEDED: glib
FAILED: gdkpixbuf pango atk gtk

I am getting this kind of errors like

c:\ruby-gtk2-0.19.4\gtk\src/rbgtkwindowgroup.c:27: undefined reference
to `rbgob
j_instance_from_ruby_object’

                  Please can anybody help me. Please guide me to

build the gtk binding of ruby. Thanks in advance.

                                            with regards.........
