Type error, 'uintptr_t' vir listen

[skoba]

Type error occurs on FreeBSD 9.1 and listen with rb-kqueue. I am very happy if listen works well on FreeBSD, could you solve this?

% ruby -v                                                              ~
ruby 1.9.3p327 (2012-11-10 revision 37606) [amd64-freebsd9]

rb-kqueue 0.2.0, listen 0.7.2 guard 1.6.2, spork 0.9.2

I tried on three different 9.1, both i386 and amd64, and I can't seem to reproduce your error.

Could you reproduce the error with a simpler scenario ? like by running tests on listen ?

[skoba]

I cloned guard/listen and ran rspec by rake. The same errors occured.

Are you sure your ruby, and gems, like ffi and rb-kqueue were compiled on 9.1 ? (well, it seems so as your ruby says amd64-freebsd9, but, you never know…) Have you tried reinstalling them ?

I'm a bit at loss here, I don't see how you could have those errors. Do you have, hum, uintptr_t defined in /usr/include (should be in machine/_types.h and sys/_stdint.h)

Could you try with a ruby installed by rvm and not the stock one ?

[skoba]

Thank you for advise me. All of ruby, gems and rb-kqueue were compiled on 9.1. I tried other my FreeBSD PC to check, and it passed and green. I think ZFS might cause something wrong, is it possible? The errors occur on ZFS, but not on UFS.

[skoba]

Once I sent-pr about ZFS curiosity.

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=169282

[mat813]

Sorry for the wait, I don't have any 9.1 with ZFS at the moment, but I'm looking at upgrading a 8.2 box. I'll let you know.

[skoba]

I found ffi package x86_64-freebsd/type.conf lacked uintptr_t type and sent pull request to ffi package. However, more test must be performed, because guard-listen does not find kevent of file change now.
