Hi Dmitry,
For the JI specs, I typically run:
jruby -S rake spec:ji
and it works for me on Windows, with the latest checkout from the JRuby repo.
All I have to do is:
1. svn co the latest jruby
2. ant clean && ant
3. set PATH so that jruby.bat is in there
4. jruby -S rake spec:ji
As for the RubySpecs, they not yet fully functional on Windows for a
couple of reasons:
1. Github was not supporting anything besides TAR snapshots in Posix
format, and Ant
can't handle such format (Ant only understands GNU TAR format), so
we had to use
the 'tar' binary, which works on Unix, but not on Windows.
Now I see that Github now supports ZIP snapshots, so that we could
get back to pure-Ant
solution without external binaries for extracting the snapshots.
2. RubySpecs are not yet fully updated to be running 100% on Windows,
since most (or even all?)
contributors do not use Windows regularly.
So, once we fix the problem #1 above, you'll be able to run
RubySpecs via 'ant spec', but
you'll see lots of failures. We need to clean/fix this up sooner or
later though...
Thanks,
--Vladimir
