Summary: id3lib-ruby 0.2.0
Project: id3lib-ruby
This is the second release of id3lib-ruby.
== Changes
* Overhauled direct access methods
* Remove frames by setting them to nil, e.g. tag.title = nil
* Removed methods for rarely used frames.
* All methods use strings now, no special cases like track anymore.
* Explicit call of to_s in set_frame_text.
* More unit tests
* Added method invalid_frames which is useful to detect invalid frame
data before calling update!.
== Description
id3lib-ruby provides a Ruby interface to the id3lib C++ library for
easily editing ID3 tags (v1 and v2) like with pyid3lib. Because the
extension is based on SWIG, already most of the features of id3lib are
implemented. |

BY: Brian Murrell (merl) DATE: 2006-05-28 04:52 SUBJECT: win32 install: depedency on id3.h ? Hi Robin,
Thanks for this id3lib interface.
I'm having a problem installing it... I got the id3lib windows binaries from here: http://id3lib.sourceforge.net/ -- I don't have MSVC++ on my machine, so I put the id3lib.dll, id3lib.exp and id3lib.lib files in my \windows\system32 directory... There's no doc, so I put them where I figured they'd be found...
I then ran the following command to install id3lib-ruby:
gem install id3lib-ruby
and I got the following error:
ruby extconf.rb install id3lib-ruby\nchecking for id3.h... no
You must have id3lib installed in order to use id3lib-ruby!
My questions: if I installed the DLL and LIB, why does it need the .h? And I can get the .h stuff (the id3lib sources) but does that not mean I need to have MSCV++ to build this thing? If I do get the id3lib sources, where do I put them so id3lib-ruby install can find them? I am msvc++/build ignorant, so please be kind.
Thanks,
Brian
