Ferret talk - Nov 2005 - Compilation of ferret C-extension under Windows.

Hi, David.

I have recently fixed ferret C sources and successfully compile extension
with MSVC.Net The problem was that MS compiler is more stricter that GCC and
require that all variables were declared before using. There was ~30 such
declaration. I have fixed them all.

But I am not sure that it works because tests failed with following error
both on clean and patched versions. So seems that it is ferret internal
error.

test_persist_index(IndexTest):
RuntimeError: could not obtain lock:

Anyway I could share or send a patch for C sources if you like.

This isn''t a bug but rather caused by the fact that you have a lock
still open in your index. I have put finalizers on the lock in the
version of Ferret in trunk to stop this from happening but it is
better if you make sure that you close the index before you shut down
the process. I think a lot of people are getting this error when
they''re running ferret in a webapp and they kill the server process.
To get it working again, just delete the lock file.

A patch would be great if its not too much trouble. Otherwise, I''d
love to see an example of what exactly is causing the error. Do you
mean it doesn''t accept;

int x = 3;

Thanks for your help.

But It happens during Ferret tests.
Now I have another error in Ferret tests.

Such thing accepted but not
  GET_STE;
  TermInfo *ti; Data_Get_Struct(rti, TermInfo, ti);
because GET_STE contains function call. After that we declire variale
TermInfo *ti;  It is not accepted by MSVC compiler.

Ok. There is part of .diff file.

Ok.
Better if you look at whole patch for Ferret.

Could you upload it to Ferret''s Trac?
http://ferret.davebalmain.com/trac/newticket (you can attach files
after you create a ticket)

Looking forward to better win32 support!

I still have tests failed. I have attached log of test running.

Hi David.

C extension for Ferret is compiled, all tests are passed. Does it mean that
native extension already supported on Windows??

BTW I know that many of Win developers have no installed C compiler and make
on their machines. Is it makes sense to share ferret\ext\ferret_ext.so file
that compiled by MSVC.Net??
Does Gem have something like "Platform specific" gems, for example for
*nix
one *.gem for Windows another?? So running ''gem install'' Gem
selects *.gem
depending on user platform.

I guess so. :)

I think that would be a great idea.

I''m not sure that gems has support for this but if it doesn''t
I''m sure
I can work out some way to do it. Could you send me the ferret_ext.so
file and I''ll see what I can work out. At least it would be good to
have it available from the Ferret wiki.

Thanks,
Dave
