Hello, I thought I'd take a minute to introduce myself. I've seen a
few posts of people having trouble building, but wanted to report that
it went clean for me right off the bat. There's a few test failures
and errors though.
rake spec:ci
Finished in 156.295783 seconds
1553 files, 6256 examples, 18175 expectations, 8 failures, 134 errors
I pulled from the macruby-mirror github repo John-Paul Bader posted
today.
For starters, are those test failures/errors to be expected? If so, is
the easiest way to get my feet wet to tackle some of those? Any in
particular I should avoid because of the complexity for a newbie, or
that someone else is deep into?
My pedigree, in case that helps anyone nudge me in the right
direction: taught myself BASIC in Jr. High, Apple II assembler in High
School, C during college pursuing a Physics degree, first job in
Newtonscript, Java (for a long time, too long), bought Pickaxe the
hour it was released <g>. Lately I'm been directing my career more
towards Ruby and Javascript. Last year was almost all Rails.
I live in the Dallas area. I'm a husband and father, so my free time
would not be considered copious, but I'm excited about MacRuby and
will make time to help.
