Hi all,
=20
I'm trying to get Dave Thomas' commit2rss.rb ruby script running on =
windows XP using CVS NT v2.0.51d. The script is at =
http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/downloads/commit2rss/commit2rss.rb.txt
=20
I've removed unix references to etc and Etc.getpwuid parts. and my =
command in the CVS loginfo is as follows
=20
# Ruby script to generate an RSS feed for commits to Underwriting module
Underwriting/* D:\development\test-workspace\scripts\commit2rss.rb %{}
=20
I'm stumped as to why I'm getting the following error on commit. I've =
included the some verbose output from cvs.
=20
-> =
loginfoarse_Info(D:/development/test-cvs-respo/Underwriting/JavaSource,=
D:\development\test-workspace\scripts\commit2rss.rb %{} )
-> run_popen(D:\development\test-workspace\scripts\commit2rss.rb =
"Underwriting/JavaSource" )
D:/development/test-workspace/scripts/commit2rss.rb:44:in `gets': Bad =
file descriptor (Errno::EBADF)
from D:/development/test-workspace/scripts/commit2rss.rb:44
=20
Line 44 refers to this block of code
=20
while line =3D STDIN.gets
line.chomp!
if line =3D~ /^[A-Z].*:\s*$/
desc << "<p /><b>" << line << "</b>"
else
desc << line
end
desc << "<br />"
end
=20
I'd appreciate any help on this.
=20
Thanks,
Paul

I've removed that potential problem from the script, but to no avail. =
From reading through some of the news groups there seems to be some =
suggestion that Ruby needs to have a real console to read from STDIN. =
Whether this is specific to Ruby on Windows I do not know.
=20
Does anyone have knowledge of Ruby on Windows to answer this?

Thanks,
Paul

Hoo-boy. I think you need to decide which path delimiter to use, and =
stick
to your single choice. The above line is truly ecumenical, but I don't
think Ruby is. I don't have a Windows system to find out how Ruby reacts =
to
these freely mixed delimiters, but this line really stands out.
