Subject: rdoc windows issues

Here is a more detailed description of what is wrong with
rdoc I'm trying to build ruby from source using the
stable-snapshot from here:
ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/stable-snapshot.tar.gz

<snip>

*Here is line 8 of c:/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/rdoc.rb
require 'rdoc/parsers/parse_rb.rb'

Hm, that .rb can be removed. But I digress.

*Here is line 16 of c:/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/parsers/parse_rb.rb
require "tracer"

*Here is line 27 from c:/ruby/build/ruby/lib/tracer.rb
MY_FILE_NAME = caller(0)[0].scan(/^(.*):[0-9]+$/)[0][0]

Can anyone make heads or tails of whats wrong with my setup?
Thank you!

There's nothing wrong with your setup. I'd call it a bug.

Change that line to: MY_FILE_NAME = __FILE__

Looks to me like the MY_FILE_NAME constant should be refactored out of
tracer.rb completely. It doesn't serve much use.

Regards,

Dan

Do you mean the whole file, or just the extension,
$ ls /c/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/parsers/parse*

/c/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/parsers/parse_c.rb
/c/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/parsers/parse_f95.rb
/c/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/parsers/parse_rb.rb
/c/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/parsers/parse_simple.rb
/c/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/parsers/parserfactory.rb

Thanks for the reply Dan!

Well... different, and here are the mentioned file lines:

c:/ruby/build/ruby/lib/yaml.rb:9
require 'stringio

c:/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/ri/ri_descriptions.rb:1
require 'yaml'

require 'rdoc/ri/ri_reader'

c:/ruby/build/ruby/lib/rdoc/rdoc.rb:250
require gen.file_name

./bin/rdoc:63
r.document(ARGV)

I hope that makes sense to someone.
