Any problems with this file? It’s what I have so far as the batch file for the SVN vars. jd ---

Looks good, it does look like PROGRAM\_FILES\_64 is never actually used… ---

Fixed. So this still leaves the problem of how to manage it so it doesn’t have version conflicts. We could make a irvars.bat.temp in the repo, add irvars.bat to the .svnignore and have people fill out the Ruby path in their personal copy of irvars.bat. But I’m not wild about that one. Any other ideas?

Make it calculate the path based on the path where irvars.bat lives- put it in a known location and you should be able to figure out everything else modulo MRI lib install path based on that. In the future we’ll start shipping the MRI standard pure ruby libs along with IronRuby. -John From: removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid [[mailto:removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)] On Behalf Of Jim D.

So leave the CRuby libs portion alone for now, and just get it to identify a root path. That I can do.

Hang on for a bit, Seo - we’ll push out a release next week that fixes all of the core problems that are leading to this behavior that everyone’s seeing. Thanks & sorry all for the problems with the SVN release. Things have been a bit hectic as of late 🙂 -John ---

I can write one of those too, I was thinking about the Windows/DOS side since people were having problems there 😉 I can do a Powershell one too 😉 JD * * * From: removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid] On Behalf Of Sanghyeon S.
