Bug #4974: [ext/tk] ruby_1_9_2@32391 build failure with MinGW

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: yugui (Yuki Sonoda)
• Target version: 1.9.2
• ruby -v: ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-07-04 trunk 32395) [i386-mingw32]

[jonforums (Jon Forums)]

On Win7 Ultimate 32bit using either MinGW (TDM-1) GCC 4.5.2 or MinGW-W64 GCC 4.5.4 I get the following build failure. The baseruby used to build was ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-07-04 trunk 32395) [i386-mingw32] with RubyGems 1.8.5 and rake, version 0.9.2.1.

Note that trunk@32395 built without error as shown at the end.

Thanks! It now works for me with MinGW (TDM-1) GCC 4.5.2. I'll check later with MinGW-W64 GCC 4.5.4 and report back if needed.

sh-3.1$ ruby --version
ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32478) [i386-mingw32]
sh-3.1$ ruby -rtk -e 'puts Tk::TK_PATCHLEVEL'
8.5.10

[yugui (Yuki Sonoda)]

Luis and Jon,

How about r32477? It works for me with mingw32.

[jonforums (Jon Forums)]

Yes, r32477 works for me when building with either TDM GCC 4.5.2 or mingw-w64 GCC 4.5.4 on Win7 32bit.

While I've run only toy tests like

ruby -rtk -e 'puts Tk::TK_PATCHLEVEL'
ruby -rtk -e "Tk.messageBox :message => 'Hello Ruby'"

and a couple other simple scripts, it now appears to work fine.
