VC8 (Express 2005) will not build any ruby extension without tweaking. Thats due the manifest need the me included in the assemblies. (Don't ask me about that, was a loooong topic on the ruby-talk about this and make ruby compile fine under VC2005). You need to build ruby with VC8 (to link against msvcrt8.lib/dll) for successfully compile the extensions. -- Luis Lavena Multimedia systems - Leaders are made, they are not born.
