Hello all,

I'm running Ruby on windows xp. I made changes to the keywords file and
would like to recompile the Ruby source to see my changes. How do I
recompile Ruby source on windows?

Thanks in advance

You could download and tweak the source for the mingw download. I think
:)

Those talk about how to compile it with mingw.
With MSVC I'm not sure how :)

Good luck.

1. install cygwin including necessary packages: autoconf,
binutils, bison, gcc, gcc-mingw, gperf, make and
mingw-runtime,

2. make build directory under the source directory,
chdir ruby/src/
mkdir i386-mingw32
chdir i386-mingw32

3. run configure with CC='gcc -mno-cygwin',
../configure CC='gcc -mno-cygwin'

4. compile and install
make all install DESTDIR=x:/path/to/install

Note that you need gperf command because you changed keywords.
