Gem for slimdx #721

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
A gem for slimdx would be nice so that it could be used with nu 
(http://nu.wikispot.org/).

But there are some questions open, it seems that slimdx uses different major 
versions for .net 2.0 and 4.0 builds - 4.0.10.43 and 2.0.10.43 for the June 
2010 release. So I guess there should be a gem for 2.0 and one for 4.0.

The other remaining question is who you want to have listed under authors, if 
there should be an email address included and which summary and description you 
like.

I have attached a preliminary gemspec for the 4.0 version.

If you like I can create the gems and upload them to rubygems.org .

Btw, is there no tag for the June 2010 version in the repository?

I'm not sure this is something we'd be able to support officially, but there's 
no reason you couldn't supply the gem yourself and upload it wherever, so long 
as you comply with the SlimDX license (which is to say, if you redist the DLLs 
you need to redist the license notice as well).

As for the .NET versioning issue: we do supply two different assembly versions 
-- this is more-or-less necessary due to changes in the assembly loading 
process for .NET 4. So you'd probably need two gems as well.

As for crediting, the author should be "The SlimDX Group" (using 
support@slimdx.org as the email) and the description can just be the first line 
of our project description: "SlimDX is a free open source framework that 
enables developers to easily build DirectX applications using .NET technologies 
such as C#, VB.NET, and IronPython."
