From: Charlie Savage Date: 2009-03-10T12:04:08+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:22794] [Bug #1253] Fix MSVC Build Issues Issue #1253 has been updated by Charlie Savage. File Makefile.sub.patch added Usaku, To help push this forward, I've attached a new patch. It does two things: 1. Takes -link out of LDFLAGS 2. Passes LDFLAGS to mkmf I realize there is some hesitancy on point #2, but I don't understand why. This fix makes it possible to compile Ruby 1.9.1 against third party libraries (zlib, dbm, etc) stored in separate directory (because you have to set LIBPATH). It works fine for me with no problems. Am I not understanding something?
