Wow, nice! Only... how do I compile the extension to take its Tcl/Tk files from a non-default directory? I tried: gem install tk_as_gem -- --with-tcl-dir='C:/Documents and Settings/echristopherson/My Documents/Development/Tcl' --with-tk-dir='C:/Documents and Settings/echristopherson/My Documents/Development/Tcl' (I don't have permission to install in C:\.)

Any idea what may be wrong? I have both Tcl and Ruby 1.9 installed on my C: drive. --Alex -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

We'll probably need more info, like put your mkmf.log output into a pastie and post the link back here or what not. GL! -r -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Yes. Still no luck. I also tried using both MSys and cmd.exe. This was on my work computer. At home, I tried installing the gem from MSys and it seemed to hang for 30 minutes or more, so I ran gem install with --verbose the second time. It seems to be sitting there doing nothing at a few different spots, but the really long one (which never terminates that I can see) is after it runs /bin/install on a whole bunch of files, with the last one being ./lib/tkextlib/SUPPORT_STATUS. At that point, I got the message "Updating class cache with 496 classes...". After waiting about 20 minutes for that the first time, I decided to try running gem install with --no-ri and --no-update-sources, but it still hangs. Places where it hangs: 1. Right after the line "c:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/tk_as_gem-0.0.1/ext/lib/tkextlib/tkimg/window.rb". This takes about 10 minutes here, before it actually prints out the remaining 42 or so files unpacked, and configures and compiles the extension. 2. Right after the line "/bin/install -c -m 644 /lib/tkextlib/SUPPORT_STATUS c:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/tk_as_gem-0.0.1/lib/tkextlib". This is the one that seems to hang for 40 minutes, or however long I let it go on. After I kill the process, I am able to at least run a test Tk program. While we're on the subject, gem install --verbose lists the files that it's unpacking, and part of the output is the following: (begin) c:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/tk_as_gem-0.0.1/ext/lib/tk/clipboard.rb :/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/tk_as_gem-0.0.1/ext/lib/tk/clock.rb (end) -- notice that there is a blank line between clipboard.rb and clock.rb, and the clock.rb line starts with :/ instead of c:/. Does anyone know why that would be? It seems to always happen right between those two lines. |
