Hello, I would like to install shoes on Solaris x86 (OK OpenIndiana) but solaris is not a supported platform. Of course, Solaris seems to have everything needed to make it a supported platform. The question is how can support for Solaris. BTW, when asking ruby about its version it reports the following: $ ruby --version ruby 1.9.3p392 (2013-02-22) [x86_64-solaris2.11] Regards, Apostolos -- Apostolos Syropoulos GR-671 00 Xanthi, GREECE
There is no known way to compile Red Shoes (shoes/shoes on github) with 1.9.3. If you figured that out, you'd be a hero.

Basically, I have asked something different :-) Now, which version of ruby should I use and then do you or anybody else have any idea how to proceed on solaris? Thanks in advance!

I beg to differ, last I checked that's what I used.
Actually.... as JRGifford pointed out, 1.9.3 does work. Just not on Windows. Sorry! It's probably very similar to https://github.com/shoes/shoes/wiki/Building-Shoes-on-Linux , but I don't know anyone who uses Solaris, so i can't help more than that.
true about the windows part. I'll try to look into a OpenSolaris VM sometime this week. -- James Gifford cell: 2162238574 Snowy Penguin Solutions, LLC | http://snowypenguinsolutions.com On Wed, Apr 3, 2013 at 4:44 PM, Steve Klabnik <steve@steveklabnik.com>wrote: > Actually.... as JRGifford pointed out, 1.9.3 does work.

OK let me rephrase my question: how can I add support for another platform? I guess the developers know how to answer this question ;-) Regards, A.S. -- Apostolos Syropoulos GR-671 00 Xanthi, GREECE
basically what Eric said. feel free to ask here on the mailing list, we can probably answer things. :) -- James Gifford cell: 2162238574 Snowy Penguin Solutions, LLC | http://snowypenguinsolutions.com On Wed, Apr 3, 2013 at 4:49 PM, Apostolos Syropoulos <ijdt.editor@gmail.com>wrote: > 2013/4/3 Steve Klabnik <steve@steveklabnik.com>: > > > It's probably very similar to > > https://github.com/shoes/shoes/wiki/Building-Shoes-on-Linux , but I > don't > > know anyone who uses Solaris, so i can't help more than that. > > > OK let me rephrase my question: how can I add support for another platform? > I guess the developers know how to answer this question ;-) > > Regards, > > A.S. > > > -- > Apostolos Syropoulos > GR-671 00 Xanthi, GREECE >
