Hi Charlie, I'd prefer to take care of this simply b/c I'm going to do some work on the build process as a whole. But I may need some help along the way and certianly will need help testing it one Windows. So if I can call on you then, that would be great.
Sure. Let me tell you how I did it for ruby-prof in case it helps.First, I've attached the Rakefile I created for ruby-prof which setups gems for *nix and Windows. In particular, look at line 82 and on. It took me a while to puzzle through it - with a lot of inspiration from how RCov does it.
Second, I created a separate directory for a MingW build which contains a hand-crafted Makefile. You have to do this because the standard mkmf built-in to Ruby assume you are linking against the same libraries Ruby itself was built with. That assumption fails because Ruby on Windows is built with VC++. And the reason to not use VC++ is because you then introduce dependencies on the right version of the C Runtime (MingW uses a version which is on just about every windows computer). Thus I separately run the make file to build the executable - the rakefile just copies it over for packaging.
Third, for debugging purposes, I have a separate directory for a VC++ project file. That isn't so important for building gems...but it sure makes it a lot easier to debug stuff on Windows.
Maybe this is easier now with mkrf, but I haven't tried it so I'm not sure. If only Ruby had something like Python's distutils that handles all these various compiler/os combinations...
Charlie How do you want to split it?Sure
