I am new to Ruby and I have an application which would be well-suited to
Rails. The difficulty is that this application will run on an embedded
ARM processor (Arcom-based armv5tel). I have searched the archives, but
I haven't yet found a solution for cross-compiling from i386 to ARM. I
found this:
ac_cv_func_getpgrp_void=yes \
ac_cv_func_setpgrp_void=yes \
ac_cv_sizeof_long_long=8 \
ac_cv_func_memcmp_clean=yes \
ac_cv_func_getrlimit=yes \
./configure \
--target=arm-linux \
--host=arm-linux \
--build=`sh config.guess`
but when I try to run the ruby executable on my target machine, I just
get a 'cannot execute binary file'.
I would appreciate any help anyone has to offer.
Thanks,
Shawn
Never mind, I worked it out.

Would you mind sharing what you ran into and what you did to solve it? I
would be interested in cross compiling ruby too, but haven't tried yet.

After loading arm-linux-gcc, glib, and binutils, I ran this:
CC=/usr/local/arm/bin/arm-linux-gcc \
LD=/usr/local/arm/bin/arm-linux-gcc \
AR=/usr/local/arm/bin/arm-linux-ar \
RANLIB=/usr/local/arm/bin/arm-linux-ranlib \
env ac_cv_func_getpgrp_void=yes \
ac_cv_func_setpgrp_void=yes \
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/arm \
--target=arm-linux \
--host=arm-linux \
--build=`sh config.guess`
and then make.
Ruby seems to work fine, but I'm now having a little trouble getting
RubyGems to work. I'm absolutely new to Ruby, so I'm still learning how
everything fits together. I'm getting a LoadError in manage_gems when
running:
./ruby ../bin/gem install rails --remote
I've set the RUBYLIB environment variable to point to both the lib and
ext directories, but something is still wrong. The full exception is:
/usr/local/ruby-1.8.2-arm/lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:21:in
`require__': No such file to load -- syck (LoadError)
from /usr/local/ruby-1.8.2-arm/lib/rubygems/custom_require.rb:21:in
