Hello,

Following changes in the RSTRING structure of ruby 1.9 (CVS), the  
mysql-ruby 2.7.2 library doesn't compile anymore. Is there a newer  
version of mysql-ruby? Or else it will make a nice week end project for  
me 🙂

I doubt one already exists.

FYI, 1.9 has undergone quite a few fairly significant changes,  
particularly over the last year or so. You'll probably find a lot of  
libraries, extensions, and applications don't work with it anymore.  
It's largely an experimental playground. I hope you're not trying to  
use it for production code.
