Description Martin Krauskopf 2007-07-19 13:52:25 UTC
When more gems is uninstalled at once there is one "Success" dialog per gem which is little annoying. Would be nicer to
have one dialog on the end of uninstallation of all gems.
Comment 1 Torbjorn Norbye 2007-07-19 15:30:25 UTC
That's because "gem uninstall" only allows a single gem to be uninstalled at one time, so my batch-mode uninstall simply iterates over the selected items and 
calls gem uninstall on each (which means a separate ruby subprocess each, which is why you get separate confirmation dialogs). I can fix this by modifying 
the gem handler such that it accumulates output from different processes to hide this distinction from the user - but this is why this wasn't just done right 
away the way it is for "gem install" (which -does- let me specify a list of gems to be installed in one shot).
Comment 2 Martin Krauskopf 2008-03-14 19:59:11 UTC
Likely possible with our_uninstall.rb file using RubyGems API (note for me).
