similar to: Ruby on Rails + DB2

I''m facing a situation where I am going to have to integrate with a legacy database , specifically the IBM UniVerse database, which is not *quite* relational. It feels like a holdover from the dark ages of computing. Before I attempt writing an ActiveRecord adapter, I''d like to know if anyone else uses this database and if I''m the only person that needs this thing. I

We in the JRuby project are working to get Rails to work successfully. However, the array-indexed block parameter is not something currently supported in JRuby: x = {} [1,2].each {|x[:foo]|} This is not used extensively in the Rails code, but it''s used enough to cause things to break in JRuby. We have been modifying the above to use a temporary local variable, but obviously

The recent Rails security issue highlighted a concern I''ve had about Rails deploys; namely, you shouldn''t deploy anything to production that you don''t need there. Rails apps have a number of scripts--potential security holes or DOS targets in this case--along with all the other application code you need. There''s no reason you should have script/server, console,

Has anyone attempted to run Rails inside of JRuby? Is that even possible? Aside from the performance implications, is it a bad idea? I''m thinking that it might be useful in very rare cases where a Ruby/Rails - equivalent of a Java solution may not exist yet. Any thoughts? Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m trying to figure out how Ruby in general, and/or anything extra Rails may have, can talk to Java APIs of third party server apps. After quite a few search attempts net-wide and on ruby forums, and with "Programming Ruby" in hand, I''m coming up with zilch. Either I''m not finding it, or I''m not recognizing it. I''m assuming there has

Last week I posted a question about monitoring Rails applications. Basically, the java folks at my business cited one of their reasons for sticking with Java is it''s monitoring tools. After picking some ears, I found out that the one we''re looking at most is JBoss Operations Network. And I have to say, it''s pretty neat.

All, Just musing about this whole FastCGI thing (that I hadn''t even thought of since 1999 when looking at OpenMarket for a customer and even then it was "old"), and wondering when we might see projects/products that attempt to provide Ruby application services in a J2EE-like container. I see the Cerise project - any interesting information on that? I''m assuming

Hello community, I''m new to rubyonrails and to this Forum. I have to call 2 Fields, generated by ruby, from a javafunction (onSubmit) but when I use this example it didn''t work, why? <%= start_form_tag({:action=> "show"}, { :onSubmit =>"post[testfieldone].value=examplefunction(post[textfieldtwo].value+post[textfieldthree].value);" }) %>

Hi all, I''m asking this question from the standpoint of a developer with almost 10 years experience with Microsoft technologies, mostly doing server side component and database work. So, I''m not very familiar with the java world. Can anyon tell me how/if java development can complement Ruby on Rails development? I''m not interested in how java can duplicate Rails

Hi everyone, I''m trying to post from a controller to another application, with one of the post parameters being a multipart file attachment. What do you recommend for this process? From what I could gather from doing searches I need to use something like Net::HTTP or open-uri, but I cannot find how to add attachments to these. Any suggestions? Thanks, Abdullah -------------- next part

Hey guys, We''ve been talking about the multi-byte patch and I think it''s time to get feedback from you guys on a possible way forward. We can include ActiveSupport::Multibyte with rails 1.2, and update all of the relevant helpers to use the String#chars proxy. This will mean that none of the action view helpers will mangle multibyte strings. Similarly, if any Strings are being

I sure hope so: http://duckdown.blogspot.com/2006/03/additional-thoughts-on-why-ruby-isnt.html Seems like it''s getting genuine rebuttals, though. It''s actually kind of amusing.

Hi all, I want to Connect to IBM MQ from Rails/Ruby, can it be done? and get the messages from the Queue, then i want to use this message in ruby/rails. Is there a direct way of doing the above job?? If so any packages are available? If there is not a way currently, and any thoughts of how we can do the above job indirectly through some other means or round about ways or workarounds can be

The ActiveRecord-JDBC adapter is rapidly maturing these days. I got the full set of AWDwR2 migrations to run with it against MySQL last night, and Ola Bini has gotten migrations working well against Oracle and Firebird. We also have SQL Server support running most of our test cases (under non-Windows environments too!) and have started adding support for Derby and HSQLDB (Java-based DBs). Things

Here are some notes from the scalability session of last week''s Rails camp. They were entered by another session participant and are posted at: http://www.rubyonrailscamp.com/10%3A15%2Bsession%2B-%2Bscaling The key points from my point of view: - the Ruby VM is sketchy, rather like the Java VM around 1997 - the single threaded nature of Rails dispatch handling means we may incur a

Why Ruby on Rails won''t become mainstream http://beust.com/weblog/archives/000382.html Kind of interesting, but didn''t convince me. Though, yeah, I can imagine a lot of naive programmers sticking with PHP and VB (the type of crowd that also doesn''t run their own servers, so they''re dependent on hosts offering Rails for them). Rails DOES have an IDE - soon

I have developed a rails 3 app and for various reasons I have been compelled to try using DB2 as the underlying database system. Does anyone have much experience of using DB2 with rails 3? Any good pointers on resources?

I often forward IBM DeveloperWorks articles about RoR to this list.

Hey folks, Since this is the Ferret mailing list I should preface this by that the donation of time and help by people like Jens Kraemer, Jan Prill and all the other people who have contributed to Ferret is just as valuable to me as any financial assistance. Thanks. Ferret has been a labour of love but it has taken up a lot more of my life than I ever expected. At in excess of 50,000 lines of

I''m trying to get the Ruby DB2 bindings to compile under Windows XP. I''ve been working on this on and off over the last few days with little success. The second step, "ruby setuyp.rb setup" was generating this error message: ABORT: Could not locate DB2 libraries or headers I know I have Db2 installed correctly so I did a little digging and found that the extconf.rb
