Hi, I''ve read that Dr. Dobbs Journal''s last issue has a cover article about Rails titled "Ruby On Rails - Java''s Successor?". Can''t find anything about it in http://www.ddj.com Does someone have the paper edition and can confirm that, and tell how the article looks like, and so on. Thanks, -- Jean-Fran?ois. -- ? la renverse.
It is the cover story. I haven''t yet read it, as I don''t get the magazine, but I saw the cover earlier this week.> Date: Thu, 11 May 2006 15:01:51 +0200 > From: " Jean-Fran?ois " <jf.web3@gmail.com>> Hi, > > I''ve read that Dr. Dobbs Journal''s last issue has a cover article about > Rails titled "Ruby On Rails - Java''s Successor?".

Yep... I''ve got it right here. It''s the June issue, which I believe is the copy they''ll be handing out for free to 15,000 java programmers at JavaOne next week. :-) I haven''t had time to read the article yet, but it runs about three pages and has a sidebar interview with DHH. Skimming it, it looks like a decent introduction to the benefits of Ruby and Rails. b Jean-Fran?ois wrote:> Hi, > > I''ve read that Dr. Dobbs Journal''s last issue has a cover article about > Rails titled "Ruby On Rails - Java''s Successor?".

Someone here at the office had brought in a copy and I saw the headlines and immediately grabbed it to take a look. The article is in the June 2006 DDJ edition. Ruby on Rails - It makers development fast agile & manageable by Michael Swaine It is a high level, very brief, overview with short paragraphs to address "What is it about Rails that makes it the right tool for the developing of database-babysitting web apps?" Productivity Plurals One-stop shopping Polish Key Ruby features Pure OOP Reflection Duck Typing Blocks MVC Books and Articles Blogs, web sites and lists It also includes a conversation with DHH. I think the interesting point is that "DDJ will be tracking Rails closely in the coming months because it may represent a historic tipping point in development environments." Hope this helps! --Bill> -----Original Message----- > From: rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org > [mailto:rails-bounces@lists.rubyonrails.org] On Behalf Of > Chris Schumann > Sent: Thursday, May 11, 2006 9:09 AM > To: rails@lists.rubyonrails.org > Subject: [Rails] Re: Rails in Dr. Dobbs Journal ? > > It is the cover story.
