BY: Roger Pack (rogerdpack) DATE: 2009-01-03 18:39 SUBJECT: CVS is somewhat confusing for latest I found some difficulty in getting the "latest and greatest" win32-api code...hunting around I ran into
http://rubyforge.org/scm/?group_id=85
and there's this one with code:
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/windows-api/
which says "last updated 2008-07-19 14:00:33 GMT" so I thought it might have the latest code, but then the real latest code appears to be in the downloads section of the rubyforge project. And nothing on github. Might want to help out poor losers like me who have trouble finding stuff.
In reality it shouldn't matter if "gem install" worked, but recently I'd get
c:\dev>gem list win32-api -b
*** REMOTE GEMS ***
win32-api (1.3.0, 1.2.0)
c:\dev>gem install win32-api
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
Successfully installed win32-api-1.2.0
[i.e. rubygems building the wrong version] which prohibited the win32-process gem from installing, that's why I had to hunt for the source, so if that weren't a problem there would be none.
Thanks so much!
