I have been trying to build ruby 1.8.2 on Windows XP and attempting to get
the extensions linked statically.  I've commented in the extension names
listed in the Setup file in the ext dir; however, when the nmake process
gets to the point of creating the ruby.exe and rubyw.exe files it spits out
a fatal error as follows:

 

making ruby.exe, rubyw.exe

Stop.

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '.\miniruby.exe' : return code '0x2'

Stop.

 

The 'cl' line looks like something got mis-generated in the make file.  I've
been successful in building the dynamically linked version of ruby, just not
the static one.

 

My ultimate goal is to embed ruby into my own executable and to statically
link in the extensions there; but I wanted to see how ruby did it first.
Any ideas on what this problem may be?
