Hi, I''m new to Ruby/Rails/Netbeans.
I would like to use Netbeans to do all my Ruby, and Ruby on Rails
development.
Questions,
1. Does my installation of Netbeans include a Ruby interpreter (or is
it JRuby only), and Rails?
2. What are the differences in developing with Ruby on Rails and
JRuby on Rails?
3. Do you think it is better to use regular Ruby and Rails with
Netbeans, or JRuby?
4. What is your opinion of the best way to develop using Ruby on Rails
and then deploy using
someone else''s hosting services.
Sorry if my questions are silly, they may not even make total sense to
an experienced developer. I have a Computer Science degree, but no
real world knowledge (sucks for me).
I just want the best most efficient way to start developing with Ruby
on Rails, and i''d like to use Netbeans (not sure why, but I just think
it might be best IDE for me)
Thanks million!

What Operating System are you using? I''m using Ubuntu and followed the guide on the NetBeans Ruby wiki to install a private copy of Ruby and manage my gems with NetBeans, makes life easy. http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/RubyGems Cheers, Anthony Richardson --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hi,> Questions, > > 1. Does my installation of Netbeans include a Ruby interpreter (or is > it JRuby only), and Rails? >The installation includes the JRuby and Rails runtimes by default. However, you are free to use native ruby interpreter if you have installed it on your system. On first time you create a rails application after installation, NetBeans wizard will ask you to choose the interpreter for your rails project. You can also find the setting on NetBeans'' Menu: Tools -> Options ->Miscellaneous ->Ruby.> 2. What are the differences in developing with Ruby on Rails and > JRuby on Rails? >The only difference I find so far is that, you should use JDBC driver and ActiveRecord-JDBC adapter instead of native ones to talk to database if you are using JRuby on Rails. For example, if you are developing a rails project with Oracle db, you can''t use the Ruby-OCI8 driver and native Oracle adapter. The correct one should be Oracle JDBC driver with ActiveRecord-JDBC adapter. However, this is only configuration difference, you will feel nothing different when programming Rails codes.> 3. Do you think it is better to use regular Ruby and Rails with > Netbeans, or JRuby? >My preference is Rails on native Ruby, but I am not sure if it is the better one.> 4.
