Hello, I am using rails 1.2.3 that came with my mac Xcode installation. If I update rails with: sudo gem update rails will the latest version of rails cause a conflict with Xcode? Thanks for your time, Calvin

Frederick Cheung wrote:> Don''t think xcode does anything with rails at allI''m pretty sure you''re correct Fred. Installing the developer tools (including Xcode) also install Ruby and Rails, along with other useful developer related things like gcc, cvs, Subversion, etc. But, other than that Xcode itself doesn''t interact with Rails. I do have a couple of recommendations though. Before you do anything else with updating, first update Rubygems with: sudo gem update --system Then your should be safe to go ahead and update any gems you like, including Rails. I''m not sure if this matters, but I don''t really use the gem update command, other than to update Rubygems itself. Instead I just use the gem install command to install updated versions: sudo gem install rails -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
