This is a very valuable gem, but I cannot install it on windows, I get this message:

It maybe that the problem is devkit, if that is the case let me know to file a big report in the devkit forums.

Thank you.

Hi Ramsees,

First of all, I'm glad that you're seeing the value of StackTracy. I really appreciate it.
As for your problem, I have just released StackTracy v0.1.3 in which the problem is fixed.
I have installed and ran it successfully on Windows using Ruby 1.9.3 and DevKit 4.5.2 myself.

Removing #include <sys/time.h> in stack_tracy.h did the trick! :P

The release CHANGELOG:

• Being able to compile StackTracy native extension on Windows (thanks ramsees for issuing)
• Tackled C compile warnings
• Not using Launchy for opening the generated HTML page when running on Windows

Please add issues when you are encountering other problems.

Greets,
Paul.
