Description macdevtips 2008-03-28 21:33:00 UTC 
Build: NetBeans IDE 6.1 Beta (Build 200803050202)

OS: Mac OS X, 10.5.2, i386

User Comments: 
Trying to use local install of Ruby and rb-appscript (Ruby apple event bridge). 

I changed the reference to the ruby interpreter to:

/opt/local/bin/ruby

You can read more about what I am trying to work with by visiting this post:

BTW, I was able to get this to work with NB 6.0.1

Thanks and a great tool, BTW!

Hi John. Could you try the latest continuous build:

http://wiki.netbeans.org/RubyInstallation#section-RubyInstallation-HowDoIGetTheContinuousBuilds

It should be stable enough (we are close to code-freeze). And if you are still stable to reproduce, could you run
NetBeans with turned logging on:

http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqRubyNBLogging

and attach the log here. Thanks for the feedback.
Comment 3 Martin Krauskopf 2008-03-28 23:26:06 UTC 
John contacted me personally. It's due to the interpreter without RubyGems. Having fix, but will commit during weekend.
Comment 4 macdevtips 2008-03-28 23:37:37 UTC 
Works with the updated jar file. Thanks for the quick fix!
