the following routine…
def readindex(path)
puts path
index = []
if File.exists?(path) then
happy = File.open(path)
while true
break if happy.eof
raw = happy.read(5)
bytes = []
raw.each_byte {|c| bytes.push©}
bytes.reverse!
n = 0
bytes.each {|i| n = n*256+i }
shift=24-((n>>24) & 0x7f)
n=(n & 0x00ffffff) | 0x00800000
index.push((n >>shift)-1)
end
return index
else
puts "NDX File not found."
end
end
works correctly in Linux version… 1.6.4 and in cgi-win version 1.6.5
but NOT in ruby 1.6.7 (2002-03-01) [i586-mswin32]
in 1.6.7 for mswin32 it doesn’t return all the data, instead ending with a
-1 somewhere in the middle. I think I am going to have to dump developing
apps for both the windows and linux versions, as there are too many
inexplicable differences. Ideas?
Thanks,
Mark
