Wow, what a weekend. I took the time off from work to finish some stoppers with One Click Installer project. You can take a look at my post on [ruby-talk:295472] and RubyInstaller devel list.
Despite my previous post, I decided to put the missing parts into the code and get s self-hosted environment of Ruby built with MinGW tools.
It can build download and build itself, which is great, so I’m moving away from i386-mswin32 platform to i386-mingw32 at last.
I encourage Gem developers to download it and start running your tests/specs against it to see if they will work.
I have plans to set CC.rb with this build to check several Gems and projects, feel free to contact me in case you want me to CI it for you.
Next step involves the generating of MSI Installers. Maybe next weekend, maybe sooner if workload allows it. Stay tuned.
