Xapian discuss - Sep 2009 - can´t build ruby bindings with msvc (xapian 1.1.2)

hi

i?m trying to build the ruby bindings in xapian 1.1.2 on win xp.
i?ve

   1. pulled the tags/1.1.2 revision from svn
   2. built SWIG from repo via MinGW and MSYS (swig -help works, so build seems
      ok to me)
   3. built xapian-core following readme in ...\win32msvc, apitest doesn?t give
      errors

now if i try to build:
"...\ruby>nmake SWIGBUILD=1

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility, Version 9.00.30729.01
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: "".\xapian_wrap.cc"" don't
know how to make
Stop."

i?m pretty sure my SWIG-path is set correctly in config.mak; i couldn?t find any
xapian_wrap.* file in the repository, i suppose those should be generated by
SWIG?


does someone know what i could do or try to get it working? any help would be
real nice.


PS
i?ve also tried revision 13512 from http://oligarchy.co.uk/xapian/trunk/, gave
me (after some warnings)the error
...\_xapian.so : fatal error LNK
1120: 1 unresolved externals.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: ""D:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio
9.0\VC\BIN\lin
k.exe"": return code "0x460"
Stop.


PPS
i?ve send another email earlier this day, but neither did i get an
acknowledgement mail nor does it appear in the archive. maybe the subject was
too long?

Yes, that's what the SWIGBUILD switch should make happen. Since we don't
provide binary builds for 1.1.2 (yet), I haven't tried this for a while, 
but I'll take a look soon.
