From: Peter Booth Date: 2002-07-14T10:01:04+09:00 Subject: Which C compiler required to build extensions for Ruby 1.6.6 Windows binary distribution? I'd like to install the RubyCurl extension into the Hunt/Thomas Windows binary Ruby distribution. Does this mean that I need to install Visual C / Visual Studio .NET ? Is there anyway of using my cygwin gcc for this? Which is the most popular Windows Ruby - the prebuilt Hunt/Thomas 1.6.6 or using cygwin and building from source? Peter
