LD_LIBRARY_PATH for ruby

[dsisnero]

I have multiple rubies installed on windows and it was linking against the wrong ruby. It would be nice if the cargo.rb file set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY using rbconfig

How do you switch between rubies normally?

I think that this is a user configuration problem, rather than a Thermite problem. There's no reason why you can't set LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running rake thermite:build. This variable's always going to be different between different environments, especially if you use different ruby managers (RVM, rbenv, chruby/ruby-install).

If you disagree with this reason, please describe how you think it would work from your point of view, and then how it would work from the view of someone else who's building your extension on a different machine and possibly different operating system.

I use uru which is like rvm on windows. It changes the path to include the ruby version first. For some reason when running thermite under that ruby it doesn't look in the path of the ruby I'm using and just uses the system ruby to search for the ruby to link with.

This is a bug in ruby-sys, not Thermite. I've filed an issue in ruby-sys for you.
