I was looking at it a little, but got stuck on the libraries that Buildr requires. It is just a few small incompatibilities in the libraries that need ironing out. But then Buildr itself uses RJB to run Java applications. The shortest path, but maybe not the prettiest, would be to port the RJB API to JRuby, to just call the Java code directly. There's only two methods in RJB that Buildr uses, one for setting the classpath and one for calling Java methods, so it shouldn't be too hard to emulate. cheers /Anders __________________________________________________________ Går det långsamt?
