Hi
This mail is regarding the errors and warnings I got while compiling
Ruby 1.9. I have downloaded the Ruby 1.9 source code from the link
http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/trunk/ and I try to compile the code
but I was getting many compile time errors. I have done some changes in
configuration file and source code to solve those errors and warnings
but still I am getting few errors. Please look in detail description
about errors and warnings below and give reply about removing those
errors and warnings so I can successfully compile and install Ruby 1.9.
Machine/OS information for my machine:
OS: GNU/Linux
Kernel: 2.4.21-40.ELsmp
Kernel Version: #1 SMP Thu Feb 2 22:22:39 EST 2006
Processor: i686
Hardware-platform - i386
Below are details about errors and warnings.
First I got this error:
rm -f ruby
/opt/ruby/ruby-1.8.6/ruby ./tool/insns2vm.rb --srcdir=“.”
./tool/insns2vm.rb:3:in `require’: no such file to load – optparse
(LoadError)
from ./tool/insns2vm.rb:3
make: *** [optinsn.inc] Error 1
I export RUBYLIB=“./lib” to solve this error.
The next error I got was:
rm -f ruby
ruby ./tool/insns2vm.rb --srcdir=“.”
./tool/insns2vm.rb:7:in `require’: ./tool/…/lib/vm/instruction.rb:105:

./tool/…/lib/vm/instruction.rb:150: syntax error
from ./tool/insns2vm.rb:7
make: *** [optinsn.inc] Error 1
The reason for this error was the version of ruby. The ruby binary
“/usr/bin/ruby” having version ruby 1.6.8 (2002-12-24) [i386-linux-gnu].
To solve it: The ruby 1.8.6 is already installed on my machine. I have
changed the “BASERUBY = /opt/ruby/ruby-1.8.6/ruby” (Earlier It was
“BASERUBY = ruby”) at line no 1661 in file configure.in and follow all
steps of compilation from the beginning (Means regenerate configure and
then Makefile).
The next error I got was:
In file included from thread.c:150:
thread_pthread.ci:90:1: directives may not be used inside a macro
argument
thread_pthread.ci:89:65: unterminated argument list invoking macro
“NOINLINE”
In file included from thread.c:150:
thread_pthread.ci:93: syntax error before ‘)’ token
thread.c:280: warning: thread_start_func_2' was declared implicitly extern’ and later static' thread_pthread.ci:114: warning: previous declaration of thread_start_func_2’
make: *** [thread.o] Error 1
To solve this error, I have commented line no 90, 91 and 92 in file
thread_pthread.ci.
Below is a snapshot of changed thread_pthread.ci file.
NOINLINE(static int thread_start_func_2(rb_thread_t *th, VALUE
*stack_start
//#ifdef __ia64
// , VALUE *register_stack_start
//#endif
));
I was getting a below warning for many of the files:
yarvcore.h:614: warning: `fastcall’ attribute directive ignored
To solve this warning, I have done below changes at line no 614 in
yarvcore.h file.
Snapshot before change for the line 614 in yarvcore.h file:
typedef rb_control_frame_t *
(FUNC_FASTCALL(*rb_insn_func_t))(rb_thread_t *, rb_control_frame_t
*);
Snapshot after change for the line 614 in yarvcore.h file:
typedef rb_control_frame_t * (*rb_insn_func_t)(rb_thread_t *,
rb_control_frame_t *);
Now I am getting this error and I can not able to solve it:
rbconfig.rb unchanged

Upgrade your ruby before compiling trunk.

What’s the version of gcc?
First I got this error:
rm -f ruby
/opt/ruby/ruby-1.8.6/ruby ./tool/insns2vm.rb --srcdir="."
./tool/insns2vm.rb:3:in `require’: no such file to load – optparse

from ./tool/insns2vm.rb:3
How did you install that ruby without optparse.rb?
The next error I got was:
In file included from thread.c:150:
thread_pthread.ci:90:1: directives may not be used inside a macro
argument
thread_pthread.ci:89:65: unterminated argument list invoking macro
“NOINLINE”
I haven’t seen this error, it may be a gcc version issue.
Anyway, I hope this has been fixed now.
I was getting a below warning for many of the files:
yarvcore.h:614: warning: `fastcall’ attribute directive ignored
What’s the version of autoconf? The warning should be checked
in configure.in.

the version of autoconf is autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57
for this I have change line no 4 with “AC_PREREQ(2.57)” in configure.in
file. Earlier this line was AC_PREREQ(2.13).
2.13? From where did you salvaged such old configure.in?
It is AC_PREREQ(2.58) in the SVN repository.

So your build process must be kicking old ruby (1.6.8?). Try checking
your PATH priority or specify BASERUBY for your make, e.g.
make BASERUBY=/usr/local/bin/ruby

Hi
I have confirmed it. I might made mistake. Earlier it was
AC_PREREQ(2.58). Then we have changed it to AC_PREREQ(2.57).

The purpose of it is exactly to get rid of those warnings.
You can change anything, but it’s at your own risk.

Hi
I checked the things whatever you had mentioned in your reply and
then I tried but it displayed same error. Then I have completely
uninstalled older version of ruby-1.6.8 and then install 1.8.6. Then I
tried to compile ruby1.9 package. But it is still giving same error and
“make†fails at the execution of following command:
./miniruby ./mkconfig.rb -timestamp=.rbconfig.time -install_name=ruby
-so_name=ruby rbconfig.rb
Are there any special settings to compile ruby1.9 package?
Are there any prerequisites for successful compilation of ruby1.9
package?
Hi,
Please stop posting same article many times.
