What's working on Ruby 1.9
Nice site to track gem compatibility with Ruby 1.9
Was trying to get sqlite3-ruby working but kept failing with...
*** No rule to make target `ruby.h', needed by `sqlite3_api_wrap.o'. Stop.
All I needed was;
sudo aptitude install libsqlite3-dev
On Debian and it was fine again.
sudo gem install sqlite3-ruby
& gem dependent
config.gem 'sqlite3-ruby', :lib => 'sqlite3'
So far got most of the usual gems working on Ruby 1.9, rebuilt my linux setup after I got XP installed. Shrunk down the partition with ntfstools & ntfsresize, then put in Ubuntu 8.10 on the remaining 10GB of my SSD drive.
Gems which work,
actionmailer (2.3.2)
actionpack (2.3.2)
activerecord (2.3.2)
activeresource (2.3.2)
activesupport (2.3.2)
builder (2.1.2)
cgi_multipart_eof_fix (2.5.0)
cucumber (0.3.0)
daemons (1.0.10)
diff-lcs (1.1.2)
eventmachine (0.12.6)
fastthread (1.0.7)
gem_plugin (0.2.3)
libxml-ruby (1.1.3)
mislav-will_paginate (2.3.8)
nokogiri (1.2.3)
polyglot (0.2.5)
rack (0.9.1)
rails (2.3.2)
rake (0.8.4)
rspec (1.2.4)
rspec-rails (1.2.4)
rubygems-update (1.3.2)
sinatra (0.9.1.1)
sqlite3-ruby (1.2.4)
term-ansicolor (1.0.3)
test-unit (2.0.2)
thin (1.0.0)
treetop (1.2.5)
webrat (0.4.4)
Got problems with pony againt tmailer but it's not that big a worry. Cucumber on XP wasn't good, workable but not as good as the real thing on Linux (hence the partitions), for some reason the console filter just didn't like the letter 'a' ;-)
MySQL gem
Found a working mysql gem here
gem sources -a http://gems.github.com
sudo gem install hectoregm-mysql-ruby
require 'mysql'
=> true
The current one's got a lot of problems on Linux
...keep you posted if I find anything else broken
