I have a little projet of a ruby extension which was organized like this :
./
Rakefile
ext/
mymodule/
extconf.rb
mymodule.rb
mymodule.cpp
source1.h
source1.cpp
source2.h
source2.cpp
Everything worked but I needed to put some of the source files in a directory (I create/modify/test all those source files in a git repos in order to just have to update this directory when my C++ code is tested). So the new organization looks like this :
./
Rakefile
ext/
mymodule/
extconf.rb
mymodule.rb
mymodule.cpp
somesourcesfiles/
source1.h
source1.cpp
source2.h
source2.cpp
My problem now is how to specify to extconf.rb where to find the source files (extconf.rb use source files in current directory by default).
I have tested this in the extconf.rb whitout success:
myfiles = %w{somesourcefiles/source1 somesourcefiles/source2 mymodule}
$srcs = myfiles.map{|i| i + ".cpp"}
I have had an error message saying that the linker couldn't find some ".o" files so I added this:
myfiles = %w{somesourcefiles/source1 somesourcefiles/source2 mymodule}
$srcs = myfiles.map{|i| i + ".cpp"}
$objs = myfiles.map{|i| i + ".o"}
But this didn't work.
