popen’ing

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

I updated airake to work on windows (thanks Todd). Instead of using system (or %x), I am trying IO.popen:

IO.popen(@cmd) do |f|
  @output = f.read
  @process = Process.waitpid2(f.pid)[1]
end

and in windows you’ll need to cmd.exe /c it:

@cmd = RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /win32/ ? "cmd.exe /c #{cmd}" : cmd

This thread was helpful and I popened a new airake/runner.rb version. The FCSH daemon still doesn’t work in windows yet.

I updated airake to support new AIR/Flex beta 2 build.

sudo gem update airake

I changed the fcsh tasks to:

rake fcsh:start
rake fcsh:stop
rake fcsh:restart
