It took me a while to get the next release out, but I finally managed to release RSpactor 0.9.16, a Mac OS X RSpec runner. There are no new features but RSpactor should be a lot more stable and responsive now.

I''ve been using RSpactor (the gem version, not the GUI) fairly happily for a month or so. However, when trying the GUI version out, it became clear that RSpactor loads things differently than ''rake spec''. Today, using the gem version, I found that I get a MissingSourceFile trying to require json. ''rake spec'' works fine. So I''d suggest that RSpactor is not quite ready for primetime, in case anyone''s thinking of using it. ///ark -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The problem comes from the environment RSpactor.app is running in. I haven''t figured out yet how to change that..> So I''d suggest that RSpactor is not quite ready for primetime, in case > anyone''s thinking of using it.You''re right RSpactor is not a final release, its a first beta. So if you encounter problems please report them to the lighthouse project http://rspactor.lighthouseapp.com or simply fork, fix, commit :) However, you can use RSpactor already for your daily work. I do, and a lot of other people too.

The lefthand drawer shows all your spec files. The right, main view shows up the content of a specific file. I don''t won''t _passing files_ to be shown up as green because its distracting colorful.

I think RSpactor has a lot of promise for Mac users and I wish the project luck. Unfortunately I don''t have the capacity to add another beta project to my plate, otherwise I''d try to be more helpful. ///ark -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The runtime environment for OSX GUI apps is controlled by an (optional) file called ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist, which you can edit using the Property List Editor. Under the Root node you create key-value pairs like: GEM_HOME => /Users/Dan/Library/gems. Property List Editor won''t let you create a file in a hidden directory (starting with a dot) so instead you can do this from a terminal window: % mkdir ~/.MacOSX % touch ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist % open ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist hth, Dan 2008/8/14 rubyphunk <treas at dynamicdudes.com>> On 8 Aug., 19:11, "Mark Wilden" <m... at mwilden.com> wrote: > > I''ve been using RSpactor (the gem version, not the GUI) fairly happily > for a > > month or so.
