Invalid Search Path - Building IronRuby on Windows

Ruby IronRuby
1

I get the following error when issuing a Rake compile w/ r113:

error CS1668: Warning as Error: Invalid search path ‘C:\Program Files
\Microsoft
SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\lib’ specified in ‘LIB environment
variable’ – 'The
system cannot find the path specified. ’
rake aborted!
Command failed with status (1): [csc /out:"c:\software development
\open sou…]
C:/Software Development/Open Source Projects/IronRuby/trunk/rakefile:159

Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Thanks!

Install the embedded Windows SDK components from VS2008? (Use can use
the
express editions:
http://blogs.msdn.com/windowssdk/archive/2007/11/30/released-visual-studio-2008-with-embedded-windows-sdk-components.aspx)
or remove that directory from the LIB environment variable.

Thanks for the advice. I took it out of the LIB path. Felt kinda
stupid that that was it ;). Now I’m getting a syntax error trying to
run ir.cmd. Any ideas on that?

Or just create the folder it is looking for.

I found that if I typed in ir.cmd then it failed with some
“<assembly…”
kind of message. If I just type in ir it works fine. Is that the
problem?
