Subject: Compile Ruby9i on Windows

Hi,

in my company we use Oracle and Windows :-(.

Now, I would like at least to start for some quick-and-dirty
solutions to use Ruby. Maybe my boss could be convinced it's
worth a closer look.

I'm afraid, I don't succeed to compile the
<http://ruby9i.sourceforge.net/> library at all. I get loads
of errors the more I try. I easily managed to compile my own
OCI (Oracle from C) programs with MSVC (by the way: C
plugins, too).

I would build a project file of my own but as I see the Ruby
installation includes ".so" files. I don't know what
restrictions to use to build DLLs that can be renamed to
that type.

Could anyone please give me a short description of what is
to do?

Thanks in advance,

Bertram
