DO you have the .so version that is appropriate to your Sketchup version ?

Sounds like your plugin wants to use digest.so

Yes.
Is there a way to unload a loaded *.so file?

Not really as it's not written in Ruby. It's written in C.

The solution is to control the Ruby enviroment you are running, so:

Where and what Ruby version is your so files getting loaded from ??

What ruby version are you running ??
In the Ruby Console type:
RUBY_VERSION
and
RUBY_PATCHLEVEL

What platform are you running on?
What SketchUp edition, version and MR are you using ??

You could do what I did - download the Win32 API from the Win32 Utils project: http://rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils (download the win32-api package), modify it into your own namespace and build your own version.

The solution is to control the Ruby enviroment you are running, so:

Where did you get the .so files that you are trying to load ??

What Ruby version / patchlevel did they come from ?

wikii

I found that one plugin uses digest.so from ruby 1.8 , another uses digest.so from ruby 1.86.

Dan Rathbun

Get the full Ruby & install it
and use the !loadpaths script (or something similar,) to be sure that files from the system Ruby libs are loading.

Remove any standard Ruby .so files from plugin dir.

Well they need to update the plugin, as SketchUp 8 on Win32 uses Ruby v1.8.6-p287 ...
