Just recently noticed that when linking ruby.exe or rubyw.exe, the icon defined in ruby.rc (or rubyw.rc) is not linked in.

The following is the command line make ruby.exe V=1 generates:

x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc -O3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fno-fast-math -g -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-parentheses -Wno-long-long -Wno-missing-field-initializers -Wunused-variable -Werror=pointer-arith -Werror=write-strings -Werror=declaration-after-statement -Werror=implicit-function-declaration -L. -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/tk/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/tcl/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/zlib/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/libyaml/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/pdcurses/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/openssl/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/iconv/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/gdbm/lib -LC:/Users/Luis/Code/oneclick/rubyinstaller/sandbox/libffi/lib -Wl,--stack,0x00200000,--enable-auto-import main.o -lx64-msvcrt-ruby200 -lshell32 -lws2_32 -limagehlp -lshlwapi -o ruby.exe

However is not linking ruby.res.o with it.

This seems to be unique to trunk as ruby_1_9_3 still was able to associate the icon with the executable.

Also this didn't affect DLL creation, as it still included the rc information for it (it linked properly)

Any ideas?

Thank you

• cygwin/GNUmakefile.in (uncommon.mk): link *.res.o.
  EXTOBJES is defined in uncommon.mk. *.res.o setting should be below
  uncommon.mk.

Thank you Hiroshi, worked like a charm.
