RedCloth .... PILES of warnings when I require it

ruby-talk
1

I've downloaded and have the Gem for RedCloth 3.0.3 installed.

When I require it ( after require 'rubygems' ) I get a PILE of warning messages about constants that are already defined ...

Anybody have any input on this?

I'd love to have a quiet this stuff down...

As far as environment specifics ... I'm running Ruby for Windows ( one-click 1.8.2 - 15 ) ... and I used Gem to install RedCloth ( version 3.0.3 )

So, if ANYBODY can provide a bit of information to help get rid of these, I'd really appreciate it.

Reading your mail further, I tried the same using require_gem 'RedCloth' and don't get all of those messages, why should that make a difference?

I'm guessing that you have redcloth installed both as a gem and as a library, and that it is being required from both locations, and the second require is redefining the constants. Guessing. Heavily.

Aha! I know, I know! Case-insensitive Windows file system strikes again, and this time it bites RubyGems in the stern. Amusing :slight_smile:

This is a RubyGems bug. To reproduce:

1. Take fresh Ruby install (must be on Windows)
2. Install RubyGems
3. Install RedCloth by gem install redcloth
4. Modify \ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\RedCloth3.0.3\redcloth.rb by adding puts 'HERE' in the beginning.

FWIW, I had a similar experience with a lib, whose name I've forgotten
(don't you just love this precision), but the problem disappeared after
I removed an environment variable RUBYOPT (IIRC) which seemed to have
survived from an *earlier* ruby installation.

So you might check your environment and remove suspicious RUBY.... variables.

I see the same messages when I launch Instiki on TextDrive.

Or you might like to remove double entries in RUBYOPT. I had 'rubygems' twice mentioned in RUBYOPT.
BTW, that happened on a WinXP box running the one-click installer.

Happy rubying

That's for a different reason - you see those when Madeleine replaces those things with object space from a snapshot.
