unresolved external symbol _ruby_current_thread (why I can't build linecache on Windows)

I should have used a more expressive subject.  Please see the "can't build linecache" post for the details

I'm not sure about linecache, but I think is no longer necessary, considering the changes done to Trace API in Ruby 2.0

There are several threads at ruby-core and issues at Redmine discussing those changes.

There is also a debugger gem that works with Ruby 2.0 without the need of monkey-patching it.

Have you took a look to that?

I'm trying to get Komodo's debugger client working with Ruby 2.0 and the ruby-debug-base wrapper around ruby_debug.so, and it still uses linecache. I looked at debugger, koichi's fork of ruby-debug-base,  and also denofevil's debase, and got my original code working on Linux with cldwalker's slightly updated fork of the classic ruby-debug-base.

Any idea why the Linux build doesn't complain about rb_current_thread and Windows does?

Fixed by installing the rubyinstaller bits, and using them to build the library.
Makes sense, as our Windows bits have always required the ruby-installer
version of Ruby.
