thanks but that doesn't work, i still get errors
Works for me. I put a 'bar.h' in the toplevel directory. My extconf.rb
file looks like this:
require 'mkmf'
find_header('bar.h', '..')
create_makefile('foo')
The foo.c file looks like this:
#include <ruby.h>
#include <bar.h> /* Quotes or braces will work */
void Init_foo(){
VALUE mFoo = rb_define_class("Foo", rb_cObject);
}
$ ruby extconf.rb
checking for #include <bar.h>
... yes
creating Makefile
$ make
gcc -I. -I/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.9.1 -I/usr/local/lib/
ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.9.1 -I. -I.. -fno-common -g -O2 -pipe -fno-
common -c foo.c
cc -dynamic -bundle -undefined suppress -flat_namespace -L"/usr/local/
lib" -o foo.bundle foo.o -ldl -lobjc
After you run extconf.rb, open up the Makefile and look for INCFLAGS.
You should see "-I..". If you don't then something went seriously
wrong.
