Like this?

  if path = ENV["PATH"]
    path = path.split(File::PATH_SEPARATOR)
  else
    path = %w[.]
  end
  dumpbin = "dumpbin.exe"
  unless path.find {|dir| File.join(dir, dumpbin)}
    dumpbin = "link.exe -dump"
  end

  IO.foreach("|#{dumpbin} -symbols -exports " + objs.join(' ')) do |l|
    ...
  end

That should work, thanks.

Can you confirm if your lib.exe has problems with spaces in path names?

Thanks,

Dan
