TServer & windows

ruby-talk
1

Hi all,

I happily use the excellent TServer under linux:

http://www.tmtm.org/ruby/tserver/

I tried this simple example with the windows-ruby version
(1.6.8 – simple install by the pragmatic programmers)

···

–
require 'tserver’
ts = TServer::new(8888)
ts.start do |s|
s.puts Time::now
end

and got the error message:
… in ‘trap’: unsupported signal SIGCHILD (Argument Error)

Am I right that this is a windows-only-problem and
that I can’t do anything else – apart from trying
a CYGWIN-compiled ruby-version.

Thanks,
-A.

As expected all works fine with the CYGWIN-based version.

Thanks,
