sqlite3 installation in Ruby On Rails

By -


I'm having issues installing the sqlite3-ruby gem on crunchbang linux. After googling the past few hours and following several people with the same problem, I still haven't gotten it to work.

Here is what I see after trying a 'sudo gem install sqlite3-ruby'

Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing sqlite3-ruby:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

/usr/bin/ruby1.8 extconf.rb
checking for sqlite3.h... yes
checking for sqlite3_libversion_number() in -lsqlite3... yes
checking for rb_proc_arity()... no
checking for sqlite3_initialize()... no
sqlite3-ruby only supports sqlite3 versions 3.6.16+, please upgrade!
* extconf.rb failed *
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of
necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more
details. You may need configuration options.


Steps To follow



Next I ran across this page; http://groups.google.com/group/sqlite3-ruby/browse_thread/thread/f22d098b561c48af/6e754f7b2fc3cd75?#6e754f7b2fc3cd75

I downloaded sqlite-amalgamation-3.7.0.1.tar.gz and issued the following commands:

extract:-

tar zxvf sqlite-amalgamation-3.7.0.1.tar.gz
cd cd sqlite-3.7.0.1
mkdir $HOME/sqlite
./configure --prefix=$HOME/sqlite
make && make install
sudo gem install sqlite3-ruby -- --with-sqlite3-dir=$HOME/sqlite

What's the difference between "include" and "require" in Ruby?

By -
The include and require methods do very different things. The require method does what include does in most other programming languages: run another file. It also tracks what you've required in the past and won't require the same file twice. To run another file without this added functionality, you can use the load method. The include method takes all the methods from another module and includes them into the current module. This is a language-level thing as opposed to a file-level thing as with require. The include method is the primary way to "extend" classes with other modules (usually referred to as mix-ins). For example, if your class defines the method "each", you can include the mixin module Enumerable and it can act as a collection. This can be confusing as the include verb is used very differently in other languages.
