Using sqlanywhere-0.1.5-x86-mingw32 with Ruby 1.9.2

[Former Member]

HI, I have tried to upgrade my Ruby 1.8.7 installation to 1.9.2 on Windows 7

I have installed the new versions of activerecord-sqlanywhere-adapter (1.0.0) and sqlanywhere (0.1.5 x86-mingw32)

When I try to run a rails server I get this:

=> Booting WEBrick
=> Rails 2.3.11 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000
C:/Ruby192/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/activerecord-2.3.11/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb:76:
in rescue in rescue in establish_connection': Please install the sqlanywhere adapter:gem install activerecord-sqlanywhere-adapter(no such file to load -- active_record/connection_adapters/sqlanywhere_adapter) (RuntimeError)

When I try to run the test I get this:

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.

Any help would be appreciated. Building sqlanywhere with rake tasks using the git repository and the latest ruby-devkit does not make a difference.

Are you using the Ruby distributions from RubyInstaller (http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/)?

Yes, those are the versions I tried.

The name of the test file you tried to run is "testsqlanywhere_test.rb". The supplied test file in the project is named "sqlanywhere_test.rb". Are you running a modified version of the test file?

The crash appears to be happening right as the library is being loaded into memory. It seems that the Ruby environment is having trouble finding an entry point into the sqlanywhere.so library. Have you had success building (and loading) any other native ruby libraries into your environment?
