This comes because the informix header you're compiling against uses the windows definitions for types that gcc doesn't use.

Patch include/esql/ifxtypes.h

Change the line
typedef __int64 bigint;
typedef unsigned __int64 ubigint;

to

#ifdef __GNUC__
typedef long long bigint;
unsigned long long ubigint;
#else
typedef __int64 bigint;
typedef unsigned __int64 bigint;
#endif

Hi Lorenzo,

it seems that there's a problem with your Informix environment. Do you mind sending this message to the mailing list?

http://rubyforge.org/mail/?group_id=1378

The last error messages though are incompatibilities with Ruby 1.9.

I'd like to use RoR with Informix and I'm trying to
install ruby-informix via "gem install ruby-informix (0.7.3)"...

Please help me!


Environment settings:

- Windows 7
- Informix Client SDK 3.50.TC6 (32 bit)
- Ruby-1.9.1-p378 (RubyInstaller)
- set INFORMIXDIR=C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Informix\Client-SDK


Here is the gem_make.out:

C:/Ruby19/bin/ruby.exe extconf.rb
