[FR-devel] Troubles running FR on Win32

[Laurent Julliard]

Guys,

I need your help here. I've tried hard to make the Debugger plugin 
work on Win32 (Win98 and Win2k) and I still can start the remote 
debugger process.

The critical part is in plugins/Debugger/Debugger.rb (look for popen 
call). What I have done for now is to replace the popen3 call by a 
normal popen call which I understand is supported on Windows.

I run a popen call on the following command:

ruby -I. -Iso -Iredist -rplugins/Debugger/debuggee.rb 
name_of_file_to_debug_here

The symptoms are not the same on both platforms (at least from what I 
see on Command window). On Win2k the command when ran says it cannot 
load plugins/Debugger/debuggee.rb and when I type the exact same 
command on the Command window it works well.

I'm really stuck here and any help you can provide me with, including 
testing on your own Windows machine is more than welcome.

Laurent
