Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] packaging ruby within an RC app

[Eloy D. <elo...@gm...>]

Hello all,

Well it took a bit longer than I'd hoped, but I'm actually too busy
atm to play with these things :)

Another problem came to my attention when discussing some things with
the guy that made the rubyosx package (thanks Jon for finding that
one). Which is an endian issue.
Anyways, this has also been fixed now after studying Apple's patches
to ruby 1.8.2.

So please try this from source, because I'm indeed doing this al with macports.
Obviously you might want to also pass a --prefix option to configure.

Patches: http://superalloy.nl/misc_files/rubycocoa/ruby-1.8.6-thread_hooks-universal-patches.zip

$ patch -p0 < patch-thread-hooks
$ patch -p0 < patch-universal
$ CFLAGS="-arch ppc -arch i386" LDFLAGS="-arch ppc -arch i386"
./configure --enable-shared --enable-pthread --without-tk
--disable-dependency-tracking
$ make all

Check the output of:
$ file ruby
And also of:
$ file .ext/universal-darwin8.0/openssl.bundle

They should both give something like:
openssl.bundle: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
openssl.bundle (for architecture ppc):  Mach-O bundle ppc
openssl.bundle (for architecture i386): Mach-O bundle i386

Once Laurent has written how to include ruby in a application bundle,
I think it might be a good option to add a patch-and-compile-ruby
option or something like that to standalonify.... Any ideas on this?

Cheers,
Eloy
