如何使用 Windows 使用 bootsnap 修复“无法构建 gem 原生扩展”错误

Question

I am using Windows, and I just installed Ruby on Rails, ruby is version 2.6.3p62 (2019-04-16 revision 67580) [x64-mingw32], rails is version 6.0.0. When running rails new blog (following this tutorial ) bundle install runs.

I have tried reinstalling Ruby, changing its version, and even removing bootsnap and running something else, but even when trying to install the puma gem I get the same error.

Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

An error occurred while installing bootsnap (1.4.5), and Bundler cannot
continue.
Make sure that `gem install bootsnap -v '1.4.5' --source
'https://rubygems.org/'` succeeds before bundling.

Actually, Bootsnap won't work on Windows anyway, so I'd recommend just removing it from Gemfile. If you want to leave it for production environment, perhaps you should include it conditionally with something like:

gem 'bootsnap' unless (RbConfig::CONFIG['host_os'] =~ /mswin|mingw|cygwin/)
