Sorry, forgot to include error dump from sqlite3 install:
C:\>gem install sqlite3-ruby
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing sqlite3-ruby:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
c:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb install sqlite3-ruby
checking for fdatasync() in rt.lib... no
checking for sqlite3.h... no
nmake
'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Gem files will remain installed in
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/sqlite3-ruby-1
.2.4 for inspection.
Results logged to
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/sqlite3-ruby-1.2.4/ext/sqlite3_
api/gem_make.out
So, I'm missing:
nmake
stdio.h
fdatasync in rt.lib
I have VS C++ 2008 Express installed, so that negates the pretense of
not having a C compiler installed. Nmake, I'm going to d/l from
microsoft, but I doubt that that will find a resolution to these issues.
