We had\ntens of bugs due to BAT limitations, we had weird behaviors depending\non the version of Windows, we had a bunch of regressions.\n\nSee http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-4100 for more details.\n\nOn UNIX platforms, we had problems because a shell-script can't be put\nas a path in the shebang and couldn't take arguments. (`#!/usr/bin/env\njruby -w`)\n\nWe also wanted to DRY up argument handling, even if it meant ditching\nshell script and writing in lowest-common-denominator C++ (!).\n\n## Compile\n\nOn UNIX, you should be able to just type `make` and a `jruby` binary\nwill be created in the project directory. Copy this to\n`$JRUBY_HOME/bin` (or wherever your `jruby` executable is installed). On\nWindows, you should also be able to type `make` if\nyou have the MinGW compiler toolkit installed.\n\nOr, open the project in Netbeans 6.8 (with C/C++ plugin installed). If\nNetbeans warns that no compilers found, follow the instructions and\ninstall the required compilers. Currenty, we support MinGW. More info\nhere:\n\nhttp://netbeans.org/community/releases/68/cpp-setup-instructions.html\n\nThen, just build it, and you're ready to go. `jruby.exe`, `jrubyw.exe`\nand\n`jruby.dll` will be created, they need to be copied into\n`$JRUBY_HOME/bin`\ndirectory.\n\nBoth, 32-bit and 64-bit compilers are supported. Great version of\n64-bit mingw can be found here: http://www.cadforte.com/system64.html\n\nTo build 64-bit version of the launcher, use the following from the\ncommand line:\n\n    make CONF=mingw64\n\n## Run\n\nThe launcher provides a great logger, use it like this:\n\n    jruby -Xtrace LOG_FILE.log ....\n\n## TODO\n\nSee `TODO.txt` file for things that need to be done before this launcher\ncould replace `jruby.bat`.\n\n##  Thanks\n\nThe original code is by Netbeans project.\n\n## License\n\nRead the `COPYING` file.\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjruby%2Fjruby-launcher","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjruby%2Fjruby-launcher","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjruby%2Fjruby-launcher/lists"}
