It seems that several gems display this behavior. I mentioned WWW::Mechanize awhile back and haven't received a reply, so I'm guessing that _why hasn't figured out what is going on on Windows yet.

I'm unfamiliar with the twitter gem, I'm curious, does it have any native extensions to build? Mechanize doesn't.

Hi, guys.
Just playing with Shoes and twitter gem, but I never get working app under Windows ( XP/Vista with latest updates ).
[Shoes.setup do
 gem 'twitter'
end

require 'twitter']
It keeps saying "Building native extensions. This could take a while".
It works under Mac OS X 10.5.4, but not under Windows.
Ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i386-mswin32]
RubyGems 1.3.0
Shoes : 1057.

Thanks,
