gem help!

[Ara.T.Howard]

i have the somewhat standard lib dir hiearchy which looks like

lib/
lib/foo.rb
lib/foo/
lib/foo/a.rb
lib/foo/b.rb

here foo.rb obviously does a relative require of both foo/a.rb and foo/b.rb.

my gemspec has something like

spec.files = Dir[ File::join("{lib,bin}", "*") ]

but, for some reason, the foo/ directory is not included in the gem! any
thoughts on how to do this?

cheers.

Try this:

spec.files = Dir[ File::join("{lib,bin}", "**", "*") ]

Which is as well as:

spec.files = Dir[ "{lib,bin}/**/*" ]

It builds a list of all entries under lib/ and bin/, also recursing
into subdirectories.

HTH,

yeah - that's what i ended up doing. strange that Gem::Specification silently
ignores directories though...
