Running tests on server 2008

Is anyone using windows server 2008 for ruby / ironruby?

I am trying to run rake rspec and get an error when it gets to the
summary:

Using my psychic debugging skills, this might have something to do with
the drive letter vs. it being a Win2K8 issue. We still have to spend
some time thinking about how to deal with paths correctly in IronRuby.

I do get the same results if I run this from c:\ironruby.

Sorry, didn’t mean to send yet…
I am having the same behavior running from c:\ironruby

I think that calling ruby.exe spec_runner.rb is returning the number
of failures as the return code and that is causing the
problem…that’s the only thing I can think of the 99 coming from
anyway.

I get the same result on my XP Pro machine. I think it is just the way
that
it works.

The chdir_spec warnings are to do with block-less calls to chdir within
a
block attached to another call to chdir.

The following code does not raise a warning…

irb(main):001:0> Dir.chdir(“c:\Windows”) do

irb(main):002:1* puts Dir.pwd

irb(main):003:1> Dir.chdir(“System32”) do

irb(main):004:2* puts Dir.pwd

irb(main):005:2> end

irb(main):006:1> puts Dir.pwd

irb(main):007:1> end

c:/Windows

c:/Windows/System32

c:/Windows

=> nil

But this code does…

irb(main):008:0> Dir.chdir(“c:\Windows”) do

irb(main):009:1* puts Dir.pwd

irb(main):010:1> Dir.chdir(“System32”)

irb(main):011:1> puts Dir.pwd

irb(main):012:1> end

c:/Windows

(irb):10: warning: conflicting chdir during another chdir block

c:/Windows/System32

=> nil

It appears that the spec_runner is setting up a chdir block and that the
chdir_spec is changing the directory explicitly (as you would expect)
and
Ruby gives a warning since, once the block exits, this new directory
will be
changed back to the one before the block began.

Nothing to worry about, I think.

Yes - that’s what it’s supposed to do. This is how we detect failure in
our automated test suites. I was more worried about the chdir_spec
warnings that you showed.

In any event, we have the new spec suite up and running here. I hope we
can ship those new bits out by the end of today so folks can hack on
some new stuff over the weekend.
