[ANN] Mongrel 0.3.3 -- Bug Fix

Hey Folks,

This is a quick release that fixes a major bug. I forgot to require the
timeout library properly in mongrel.rb so people using Mongrel outside
of
Rails would see pauses. 0.3.3 fixes this all up.

The 0.3.3 release also has a small change to the examples/simpletest.rb
file
with some gzip response using Ruby’s zlib support. Curious what people
think about this and whether it works for them.

You can grab this release of Mongrel from:

Or just do gem install mongrel (or update if you’ve already installed
it).

Enjoy!

Let me work on the pre-built win32 gem. Other folks have done this but
it
seems to involve a bit of black magic.

Install failure on windows 2000.

I ran gem install mongrel, which gave me an

Unknow directory – mmake error.

Not to be discoruaged. I downloaded and installed MS C compiler
(VStoolkit), then grabbed the .gz file from rubyforge. When I unzipped
and
untar’d it, I could find nothing to compile.

Are there instructions somewhere on how to comipile and install Mongrel
on a
w2k platform? I’m a novice at compiling on windows.

Or will there be binaries avalable soon???

OK, I’ll try to be patient. I don’t really have a burning need for it
right this minute. It’s just that I reading so many good things about
Mongrel, that I feel I must be missing something really cool!

I sent Zed a patch that builds win32 gems earlier today. The next
release should have a binary version for those of us stuck on Windows.

Hi Larry, I’ve prepared a binary build for you, if you want to try.
It’s not a GEM package so you just unzip it in your ruby directory and
it should work.

Build with MSVC 2003.net with Ruby 1.8.4

Let me know if it works for you…

Here’s a GEM I just made for those who cant wait…

Bear with me this is my first GEM.
