Main.java:128:in `run’: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jruby/exceptions/ThreadKill
from Main.java:97:in `main’

meant “you upgraded your jruby version while a program was using the jar, so it changed from underneath it” (don’t do that).

this actually meant “you have met the file limit that is set for that gpfs device” (so increase it)

gcc.exe: ../.././ext/bigdecimal/bigdecimal.def: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [../../.ext/i386-mingw32/bigdecimal.so] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/dev/ruby/downloads/ruby_trunk/ext/bigdecimal’
make: *** [mkmain.sh] Error 1

meant “you need to run configure again, it appears, to get new makefiles”

error: error reading /root/.m2/repository/org/apache/xbean/xbean-spring/2.7/xbean-spring-2.7.jar; error in opening zip file

meant “that zip file was corrupted–a 404 file — delete it then run maven again” (the jar file was corrupt–boo on maven).

I’ve contemplated in the past creating a little helper for ruby that allows the following:

class A
 def go_from_x_to_y(x, y)
 end
 multi_input :go_from_x_to_y
end

A.new.go_from(23).to(78)
or possibly
A.new.go_from_x(23).to_y(78)

Anybody think this would be interesting? Any takers thinking that this would be useful?
Just comment here and I’ll code it up.
Thanks.

Well, savservice.exe eats lots of cpu for me, and, unable to uninstall it from windows 7, for some reason, I think you can turn it off by disabling its service:

run “services.msc” (windows+r, type in services.msc)

right click on sophos xxx, change its status to disabled.

meant “you need to use a non msys version of perl, like a cygwin one or a better msys one or something”
