Build for Windows XP +
3.2 Walkabout. Build for Windows XP +, 32bit Make sure version and build name looks like this : shoes-3.2.r####-walkabout-[platform].[suffix]
r#### is the build revision number. [platform] and [suffix] are platform specific.

Help please! Topic is right but I don't understand what this particapant is saying. My issue is building shoes on windows. My output from rake command = C:\shoes_dev>rake "downloading http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/mingw/mingwrt-3.15.2-mingw32-dll.tar.gz to C:/sh oes_dev/downloads/mingwrt-3.15.2-mingw32-dll.tar.gz" WARNING: Global access to Rake DSL methods is deprecated.

Could we get this installer updated please? I downloaded everything from the site wget was trying to use on the wiki. I don't know what you expected windows to do with that? I have msysGit installed from the net installer but there must be environment vars to be set I guess.(more docs on that needed) No wget working here. I have devkit but that is not used in the wiki. I have Ruby-1.9.3-p194 but the wiki wants 1.9.2 What else can I complain about? Just ask me. I barley know how to use git. Sorry!
Could we please let ashbb know that this is not working for the rubyinstaller?
I tried changing the :url in the config/ruby_installer.rb to
http://www.rin-shun.com/shoes/MinGW/downloads
Then rake again =
C:\shoes_dev>rake
"downloading http://www.rin-shun.com/shoes/MinGW/downloads/mingwrt-3.15.2-mingw32-dll.tar.gz to
C:/shoes_dev/downloads/mingwrt-3.15.2-mingw32-dll.tar.gz"

Like I stated previously, I have already downloaded everything from this directory = http://www.rin-shun.com/shoes/MinGW/downloads/ Why should it be doing this again?
@DouglasAllen: Thank you for taking the time to report this.
@ashbb - i'm sure you've seen this, but please see the thread above when you get the chance, I know you've got a busy schedule. :)
I have shoes working but just thought I might try to build it. Thanks @jrgifford
@DouglasAllen
I have Ruby-1.9.3-p194 but the wiki wants 1.9.2
Are you using Ruby 1.9.3? If so, refer to Red Shoes for Windows with Ruby 1.9.3p125.
But honestly I didn't build Red Shoes for Windows for over half a year. So, I'm not sure the article is still useful...
K! Thanks @ashbb I got some of the way into this by getting ride of all the download tasks that I did find in all the rake files. It went into extracting mode but when it got to this rake aborted! Command failed with status (2): ["C:/shoes_dev/sandbox/extract_utils/7z.exe...]
Tasks: TOP => default => extract => interpreter:ruby19:extract (See full trace by running task with --trace)
Looking in the rake file C:\shoes_dev\recipes\interpreter\ruby19.rake there isn't an extract task defined. I do have it from http://www.rin-shun.com/shoes/MinGW/downloads/ which is 1.9.2 there. Got access to that @ashbb ? Maybe you could just drop in 1.9.3
ruby-1.9.3-p286.tar.gz is out now and another shoes page is here http://www.rin-shun.com/shoes/
@ashbb perhaps you could tell us what the rake files use for a downloader. I was not able to get any of that to work in spite of changing all the uri: to a known good. It gave a status as it seemed to be downloading but aborted on the first one. That's when I decided to comment out all the :download tasks as I did so already from the given url. I noticed that "C:/shoes_dev/downloads/ruby-1.9.3-p125.tar.bz2" > NUL was just before the abort report that I posted here. So I'm getting it and will try again. The url is http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-p125.tar.gz
@DouglasAllen Is your problem downloading dependency files?
If so, I'm so sorry to say nothing about that...
The rake-download-task doesn't work well. You have to download all files by hand.
After downloading all files by hand, you can do rake.
Then the rake skips downloading task and use files you already downloaded by hand.
@ashbb It didn't do that. I did what I stated before above. I got the newer ruby-1.9.3-p125.tar.gz and put it into the downloads dir. I had to change the config/ruby_installer.rb line 96 from 'ruby-1.9.3-p125.tar.bz2' to 'ruby-1.9.3-p125.tar.gz' Then rake ran all the way to compiling until here configuring etc make: *** [exts.mk] Error 1 rake aborted! Command failed with status (2): ["C:/shoes_dev/sandbox/msys/bin/bash.exe" -...]
Tasks: TOP => default => source_dependency_compile => interpreter:ruby19:compile (See full trace by running task with --trace)
Are there more dependencies than just the ones in the downloads folder? I almost thought we had it. You guys amaze me what you do all this stuff like minGW and rake. I wouldn't know where to begin. As it is I've got about three different installs of minGW and msys. One from the devkit, one from the msysGit, and this one. When will it ever end? I had it all working a long time ago before I even heard of shoes. Now I hope it's getting easier to install. So what does Ruby need to build? It seems to have failed. Thanks again @ashbb If there is a build log somewhere would you want it?
I ran rake again from the C:\shoes_dev and this time there were no errors. But I still don't have a shoes folder in the sandbox.
I git clone https://github.com/ashbb/shoes.git in the sandbox. I went back to root C:\shoes_dev I ran > rake interpreter:shoes:compile Shoes seems to have built.
C:\shoes_dev>rake installer rake aborted! Don't know how to build task 'installer'
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
Any notes on that? What directory should I be in?
shoes policeman (0.r1554) [i386-mingw32 Ruby1.9.3] which I have installed from shoes site but not sure which version of Ruby it uses. Let me check. No it is shoes policeman (0.r1514) [i386-mingw32 Ruby1.9.1] +video
I went and got http://vgoff.posterous.com/a-trial-of-building-red-shoes-for-windows-wit http://www.rin-shun.com/shoes/shoes-0.r1777.exe shoes policeman (0.r1777) [i386-mingw32 Ruby1.9.3]
Why isn't that listed on http://www.rin-shun.com/shoes/? I'm going to drop ruby-1.9.3-p286.tar.gz into downloads and see if we can build it.
Yay! I built shoes with the newest Ruby. The shoes version is still shoes policeman (0.r1554) [i386-mingw32 Ruby1.9.3] but that's shoes. I just dropped this distro into 0.r1554 of shoes where my other shoes live. Is there a shoes app command that will tell you the version of Ruby? I can see msvcrt-ruby191.dll with further info below saying 1.9.3.286 Ruby interpreter (DLL) 1.9.3p286 [i386-mingw32] so I guess that's right.
@DouglasAllen Wow, fantastic!
Is there a shoes app command that will tell you the version of Ruby?
Shoes.app do
para RUBY_VERSION, ' ', RUBY_PATCHLEVEL
end
The shoes version is still shoes policeman (0.r1554)
Because you are using ashbb/shoes/tree/master branch.
Red Shoes version is the number of commit lists: git rev-list HEAD.split.length + 1
The ashbb/shoes/tree/develop is 0.r1805 now. The shoes/shoes/tree/develop is 0.r1823.
After 0.r1783, I've not tried to build Red Shoes. So, I'm not sure you can use the latest code for Windows, though... :-P
K! We are just discussing this @ http://vgoff.posterous.com/a-trial-of-building-red-shoes-for-windows-wit because I know he is very interested in shoes and by the way, did everyone get to see the video presentation he did as an interview with Steve http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UQI1iCqAx4
That video is really nice to watch, watched it back then and it was awesome :-)
