I've seen this on Linux and Mac as well when attempting to build a 32-bit Ruby extension against a 64-bit Firebird library or vice versa. Simply stated, you'll need either a 32-bit Firebird library or a 64-bit Ruby because 32-bit and 64-bit code won't link.

Yeah, maybe when the Ruby installer for Windows 7 64 is ready.

thank you,

[gedean]

Just replace the 64 bits by 32 bits before install the gem, then after installation, put the 64bits back and it will work fine.

[ramsees]

Ah interesting, I'll try that.
