Does somebody know when the Ruby 1.8.6 One-Click Installer will be
ready for downloading?
Hi there,
I too would like to know this ?
Without this, how do you upgrade on a Windows XP platform ?
regards, Daveo

The OCI isn’t the only way to go, though it may be worth waiting for.
There are usually windows binaries posted on
http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/
but only 1.8.5 is there now.
You can build ruby yourself on windows, using one of gcc (cygwin or
mingw) or the free-download MS compilers. (The NEWS file claims “build
tools support” for Visual C++ 8 SP1, so maybe you don’t have to use VC6
any more.)
Quoting Joel VanderWerf [email protected]:

It’s definitely worth waiting for!

Cygwin and MSys/mingw are definitely deprecated. The OCI is built now
with a
Windows compiler, although I’ve forgotten which one.

And it’s available here: http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubyinstaller/
BTW, who takes care of updating the download from
Ruby Programming Language? I’m just asking because the download at
Download Ruby is still 1.8.5-21.Happy rubying

I think you need to send an e-mail to [email protected], may be
they can update the link there… there must be a way to include some
nice Ruby code to automatically update these links whenever a new
version is available

You are my heroes!
I have built it but I like to install it from official installation. I
have few XPs and it is the straightforward way to change to new
version.
Thank you once again.
