[FR-devel] FreeRIDE works under Windows

[Curt Hibbs]

I just verified that the current version of FreeRIDE will, in fact, run under Andy's latest (beta) windows installer version of Ruby -- 1.6.7 which you can find at:

 

    http://rubygarden.com/ruby?WindowsInstaller

 

Of course, this is still with my hack for working around the Windows problem with threading (which Laurent changed to use only if FreeRIDE is running on Windows). This means that you can't currently run Laurent's Databus Inspector on Windows.

 

This means that my next task (as I said before) is to solve the threading problem.

PS

   Andy is also putting together a 1.7.2 release of the Ruby windows installer, and I will test against that when he makes it available.
