Rails - Jul 2005 - Rails is really great... but it could be even better

...with a strongly typed language that supports auto-complete.
In large projects auto-complete is a must have, in my opinion, even if these 
large projects get a healthy diet with Rails (I do love the way it 
eliminates a lot of duplication ).

Imagine you are starting to develop on an already existing project: do you 
need to have all the class structure in your head before starting coding?

So I would only have a request for Ruby: Let me declare the variable types 
when I want. Or better yet, let me edit code while debugging (interactive 
mode) to get that helpful auto-complete, you beautiful language. And ship 
with a user-friendly editor too. Or use the great Eclipse.

Great community you''re building up here.

Cheers,
Tiago

the jedit ruby plugin has method completion at least
for all built in types.

Wrong list. Try ruby-talk.

I''ve been doing all my Ruby coding in IDEA, and nope, nothing so far.

Auto-complete tool support = +1
Strongly-typed = -1

If that''s what you''re looking for, perhaps you should take a
look at
the various rails clones for ASP.Net or Java?
