For us works compiling with VC7 (2003) and even with VC8 (2005),
although I have to copy those manifests andd runtime dlls along with
extention dll. I know it isn't safe, however we do it for more than a
year and without crashes. So it's possible, but YMMV.

Recent versions of ruby in CVS embed manifests into DLLs.

To compile under VC8 I had to comment out the compiler check in
config.h since one-click 1.8.4-20.

Then you have to change important definitions at the same time,
or the result files don't work properly.

Is it possible to develop a ruby application and use a c++ shared
object/dynamic link library on linux and windows without changing the
source code of the ruby application and the c++ shared object/dynamic
link library ? After reading your posts i think this is not as easy.
