Asp Forum - Rake goes into infinite loop on Windows

djberg96

5/1/2005 9:17:00 PM

Hi all,

Windows XP
Ruby 1.8.2
Rake 0.5.4

When I tried this simple rakefile it went into an infinite loop (and
leaks like a sieve). Experiments show that it seems to be happening in
the directory task.

Am I doing something wrong?

# rakefile
require "rbconfig"
require "rake/testtask"
include Config

destdir = CONFIG["sitelibdir"] + "/html"
directory destdir # Inifinite loop here

desc "Install html-table"
task :install do |t|
FileUtils["lib/html/*.rb"].each{ |file|
cp(file, destdir)
}
end

Regards,

Dan

It's a bug.

When constructing your destdir, you obtain something like this:
c:/usr/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/html
(this what I obtain on my computer)

But in rake.rb, on line 408, the code for directory is as this:
----8<----
def directory(dir)
while dir != '.' && dir != '/' # work on unix but not on windows
file dir do |t|
mkdir_p t.name if ! File.exist?(t.name)
end
dir = File.dirname(dir)
end
end
----8<----

I hope this will help

So you say that I have no logical reason to believe as I do and yet you
don't know what I believe and that makes me the one that's insane?

I do find it very un-Christian to think Jesus support bullying.

"Fox news also has a story on it. To bad they have also sunk so low."

> I do find it very un-Christian to think Jesus support bullying.

What evidence do you provide that the law supported bullying? Other
than hysterical rants, I mean?

Richard you a little crazy at times. I just applied the same
standard you applied to Time Magazine and all the sudden your in nut
mode. Yes I know Fox News is perfect to your type above God.

Well lets see a law that is to prevent Bullying has a out for those
that claim they bully because of religion. Seems to support bullies
that claim they do so because of religion. Why would you even need
that out.

They did this to say a Christian has the right to Bully. Can you show
me in the bible where Jesus said to bully anyone?

Maybe Fred Phelps helped write this. Maybe Rev. Terry Jones helped
write it he is running for President he does have all the making of o
a radical Tea Party member.

If you changed the Murder laws to say you can do so for religious
reasons think of the effect. All murderers would claim it was for
that reason. The law makes it plain you can bully all you want if you
claim it is for Religious reasons. Why did they use tax dollars to
make such a stupid law? Talk about wasting money.

Talk about a person defecating on a car and both the news and Tea
Party members go insane.
Then talk about a law to prevent bullies from driving kids to
suicide being hijacked and made useless for political gain and the Tea
Party members don't just say nothing they defend it.

No, I'm not. However, you're a big liar pretty much every the time
you're online.

> I just applied the same

Of course, you did no such thing.

My objection to the Time Magazine article was not that they dared
discuss the issue - but they did so dishonestly. The author never
explained EXACTLY what the law was, nor did he provide ANYONE from the
Republican Party to defend it. He simply handed in a 700 hundred word
temper tantrum.

>... and all the sudden your in nut

If FOX News handled the story, I'd be very interested in reading what
they wrote.

> Yes I know Fox News is perfect to your type above God.>

For a person who pretends to be a Christian, you certainly do enjoy
insulting God, don't you?

What, EXACTLY, does that mean? Are you saying that a thug can escape
punishment for beating up a person by claiming they're a Christian?
If so, I'll need some proof of that.

What, EXACTLY, does the law say?

> Seems to support bullies
> that claim they do so because of religion.

How? Where? When? What? WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU BABBLING ABOUT?

> Why would you even need

Read that sentence out loud.

> They did this to say a Christian has the right to Bully.

I don't believe you. Prove it.

> Can you show

My, my. You've gone from insulting God to hiding behind Jesus' robes.

What does the law ACTUALLY say?

The truth is that YOU DON'T KNOW - and YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW.

> Talk about a person defecating on a car and both the news and Tea

And in bank lobbies. And drug overdoses. And throwing feces & blood
in the face of a hot dog vender. And rapes. And torching a
building. And tossing a 78 year old woman down a flight of stairs.
And selling heroin. And open antisemitism. And marching with Nazis,
KKK members and the Communist Party. And attacking the police. And
being a breeding ground for rats.

And all you do is shrug, and pretend it didn't happen.

Because you're a corrupt person.

To defend what? You haven't even posted what the law says.... only
hysterical rants against it.
