Ok, tried installing BDB 4.6.21 MSI package, also making it available using --with-db-include and --with-db-lib, no luck Tried renaming libdb46.lib to libdb46.a (which is the convention expected by GCC), no luck there neither. Next try was mattbauer's bdb, no luck. This time, renamed to libdb-4.6.a, since this bdb extension is looking for "db-4.6"... No luck still... After peeking in the mkmf.log, found this: have_library: checking for db_version() in -ldb-4.6... -------------------- no "gcc -o conftest -I. -IC:/Users/Luis/Tools/Ruby/ruby-1.8.6-p383-i386- mingw32/lib/ruby/1.8/i386-mingw32 -I. -IC:/bdb-4.6.21/include -g - O2 conftest.c -L. -LC:/Users/Luis/Tools/Ruby/ruby-1.8.6-p383-i386- mingw32/lib -LC:/bdb-4.6.21/lib -L. -lmsvcrt-ruby18-static - ldb-4.6 -lshell32 -lws2_32 " In file included from conftest.c:3: C:/bdb-4.6.21/include/db.h:131: error: conflicting types for 'ssize_t' C:/Users/Luis/Tools/MinGW/gcc/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.5/../../../../ include/sys/types.h:104: error: previous declaration of 'ssize_t' was here checked program was: /* begin */ 1: #include <windows.h> 2: #include <winsock.h> 3: #include <db.h> 4: 5: /*top*/ 6: int main() { return 0; } 7: int t() { void ((*volatile p)()); p = (void ((*)()))db_version; return 0; } /* end */ ------------- Which lead me to think the issue is inside bdb itself... commented out line 131, since MinGW already defines ssize_t properly... the output was this: C:\Users\Luis\Projects\oss\bdb\ext>ruby extconf.rb --with-db-dir=C:/ bdb-4.6.21 checking for db_version() in -ldb-4.7... no checking for db_version() in -ldb-4.6... yes Writing bdb_aux._c (defines), this takes a while don't know how to handle DB_COMPACT_FLAGS \, guessing UINT wrote 409 defines creating Makefile -------------- Now, let's try to make it: C:\Users\Luis\Projects\oss\bdb\ext>make gcc -I. -I. -IC:/Users/Luis/Tools/Ruby/ruby-1.8.6-p383-i386-mingw32/ lib/ruby/1.8/i386-mingw32 -I. -IC:/bdb-4.6.21/include -g -O2 -c bdb.c bdb.c: In function `db_open': bdb.c:241: error: too many arguments to function `raise' Stall there, since I'm not familiar with the code or what is trying to achieve. So: looks like both extensions needs some love to work properly under GCC and Windows. I would suggest poke the authors, point them to RubyInstaller Google Group [1] to get some assistance in the process and use tools like rake-compiler [2] to compile the extension. Definitely that will not solve your situation right away but will help everybody in the future. Apologizes couldn't get this working for you. NOTE about version used: Used Ruby 1.8.6 since most likely, and after try and error, none of the extensions seems to like Ruby 1.9.1 (mattbauer used a deprecated constant and failed with 'raise' issues described above).
