pre-compilation

EDIT 4, 5 and 6 8 hours in, any more ideas are welcome :) Maybe this bug is already known and solved, but I get the behaviour I described in edit 2&3, when you have this in a .css.erb file in app/assets/stylesheets : li { background-image: url(<%= asset_path "logo_80px_80px.png" %>); } The problem part seems to be the asset_path method call, but .css.scss also breaks it with: li { background-image: url(image-path("logo_80px_80px.png")); } My GemFile is: source 'http://rubygems.org' gem 'rails', '3.1.3' gem 'pg', '0.11.0' gem 'gravatar_image_tag', '1.0.0.pre2' gem 'will_paginate' gem 'rake' gem

I am trying to use ASP.NET precompile tool aspnet_compiler.exe to compile site after it has been deployed. As per book definition running in-place precompile on web machine should improve first page load experience. The compilation tool compiles each ASP.NET page, storing the compiled version in the %WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files folder just like if the pages had each been visited for the first time from a browser. In-place precompilation can speed up the first request made to newly deployed ASP.NET pages on your site because it alleviates the runtime from

Looking at the Handlebars.js documentation for precompilation. The instructions are for OSX. Can this be done on Windows as well? If so, when they say to "install node and npm" does "node" refer to " node.js "? Install Node.js for Windows from here: http://nodejs.org/download/ . Run in the command prompt: npm install handlebars -g Now you can use the following syntax in the command prompt: handlebars <input> -f <output> ,where <input> is an original template file name, and <output> is a pre-compliled template file name. Example: handlebars person.hbr -f person.js In visual studio you have 2

I know that in the past there was an option -fprefix-function-name that would add a prefix to all generated symbols, it doesn't seem to be part of gcc anymore. Is there any other way to do this? George Skoptsov I believe this answer will give you the solution. In short, you can 'prefix' symbols in an existing library using objcopy like this: objcopy --prefix-symbols=foo_ foo.o hide0 *EDIT: George Skoptsov's solution 's better than mine :) The nm trick might come in handy though. This is not exactly what you are looking for, but I have had to do something similar in the past (renaming the

For Python, it can create a pre-compiled version file.pyc so that the program can be run without interpreted again. Can Ruby, PHP, and Perl do the same on the command line? There is no portable bytecode specification for Ruby, and thus also no standard way to load precompiled bytecode archives. However, almost all Ruby implementations use some kind of bytecode or intcode format, and several of them can dump and reload bytecode archives. YARV always compiles to bytecode before executing the code, however that is usually only done in memory. There are ways to dump out the bytecode to disk. At

I would like to pass some options to a compiler. The option would have to be calculated at compile time - everytime when 'make' is invoked, not when 'cmake', so execute_process command does not cut it. (does it?) For instance passing a date to a g++ compiler like that: g++ prog.cpp -o prog -DDATETIME="17:09:2009,14:25" But with DATETIME calculated at compile time. Any idea how to do it in CMake? Bounty edit: A least hackish solution will be accepted. Please note that I want to be able to exectue an arbitrary command at compile time, not only 'date'. Edit 2: It have to work on Linux, Windows
