Hi Luis, Roger, I just built MRI on Windows/mingw, from the very latest trunk, and also starting to see this issue: D:/work/jruby-dev/rubyinstaller.git/sandbox/ruby19_mingw\bin\ruby -ve 'gets' ruby 1.9.2dev (2010-03-24 trunk 27027) [i386-mingw32] -e:1:in `gets': Not enough space - <STDIN> (Errno::ENOMEM) from -e:1:in `gets' from -e:1:in `<main>' On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 8:33 PM, Luis Lavena <redmine / ruby-lang.org> wrote: > Issue #2998 has been updated by Luis Lavena. > > > Can you try STDIN.gets? The same is for STDIN.gets. It fails the same way. Btw, the earlier version, ruby 1.9.2dev (2010-03-05 trunk 26821) [i386-mingw32], is OK, so this is a very recent regression. Thanks, --Vladimir
