It''s where the future of ruby is headed and at a basic level is faster than ruby 1.8.x. Not everything is ready for it yet though (while rails is, your code or gems that you use may not be ready yet).

Disadvantages would be potentially gems not working.

If that''s Ruby 1.9 then it would probably be best to develop and test under 1.9. Personally I''m not deploying Rails applications yet, I just use Rails for developing prototypes. We are unfortunately a Java shop. My interest in Ruby on Rails is for my own personal development, but I don''t currently have anything to deploy. I''m also on Mac OS X Leopard and using the Apple supplied Ruby. It''s working great in my case so there''s no reason for me to change yet. I''ll just be waiting on Ruby 1.9 to become the de-facto standard, which I expect to happen when most of the popular gems have been proven to work well with 1.9. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
