Ironruby core - Oct 2007 - Checked in a Rakefile that should work correctly with Linux filesystem

Can someone with a Linux box please verify that this works correctly?

Thanks,

:compile task depends on :happy task, which cannot find .exe commands.
The following patch should correct that.

Excellent! I just applied this patch to my local copy. I''ll push it out
tomorrow along with some other fixes that I''m working on tonight.

Other than that, does it compile and run OK on Mono?

COMMON_DEBUG_SWITCHES has define:DEBUG;TRACE, but the semicolon is a
statement separator in *nix shell. I think you need to quote it.

Other than that, Mono 1.2.5 (the latest stable release) will suffer from:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=325110
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=325319
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=333647

Thankfully, all of them are fixed in current SVN. IronRuby compiles
and runs OK where OK is defined as evaluating 1+1. I haven''t tried
tests yet.

I''m trying to build IronRuby on my Mac now. Quoting does fix the
problem above.

I tried building using a binary redist of Mono for the Mac, and ran into these
bugs. I then switched over to the Mono SVN repository and saw a regression - it
fails to compile at all with a new compiler error (see below). I just sent an
email to Miguel to see if he could look into this for us rather than us trying
to figure out what''s causing gmcs to fail.

Interesting that this worked for you though ...

Thanks,

Yes, it was a very recent regression, and it is now fixed. It did work
sometime between 1.2.5 and SVN of yesterday...

I updated to SVN r88240 and it''s all fine now.

That''s great news! I''ll update via SVN when I get home (I
can''t hit svn:// from inside of MSFT on my Mac since we don''t
have a proxy client for Mac handy).

BTW, have you tried running the tests yet? You could try the simpler ones via
rake test, or the more adventurous ones via rake specs.
