[ruby-core:47600] [ruby-trunk - Bug #7036] Compiling extensions with Ruby in a path with spaces

Yes, the patch attached solves the linking issue.

By quoting $ruby after installing in mkmf also solves the generation of .def file.

But it fails during build since $ruby is miniruby (and a lot of options)

I haven't had enough time to look into this :(

Bug #7036: Compiling extensions with Ruby in a path with spaces

Hello,

This has been reported several times to RubyInstaller: inability to install gems when Ruby has been installed in a path with spaces (e.g. (({C:\Program Files})))

Since this is presented to the user as (({gem install})) error, a deeper investigation revealed:

Generated Makefile contains a reference to (({RUBY})) that is not quoted, resulting in errors like this:

 V:\User Name\ruby-2.0.0dev-i386-mingw32\lib\ruby\gems\2.0.0\gems\json-1.7.5\ext\json\ext\generator>make
 generating generator-i386-mingw32.def
 /bin/sh: V:/User: No such file or directory
 make: *** [generator-i386-mingw32.def] Error 127

This can be easily solved by doing:

 ruby = #{$ruby.quote}

The second issue is more complicated, as is caused by (({$LIBPATH})) and (({libdir})):

 linking shared-object json/ext/generator.so
 gcc.exe: error: Name/ruby-2.0.0dev-i386-mingw32/lib: No such file or directory
 make: *** [generator.so] Error 1

While (({LIBPATH})) is being built using (({libpathflag})) method, this method fails to detect path with spaces since it uses (({LIBPATHFLAG})) from rbconfig

Since mkmf finds the above mentioned key in (({RbConfig::CONFIG})), it never attempts to use -L"%s" alternative:

  LIBPATHFLAG = config_string('LIBPATHFLAG') || ' -L"%s"'

Now, (({libpathflag})) do not detect a path with spaces because the array of options given are (({[".", "$(libdir)"]})).

In the case of Windows, LIBPATHFLAG shouldn't be hardcoded, or at least should always quote strings, considering Ruby can be relocated.

Nobu, Usa, Hiroshi, what are your thoughts about this?

I'm looking for some feedback before I start some modifications.

Thank you in advance for your time.
