Guys,
This sounds like an awesome list of stuff, but a feature that I think
would help a lot of with JRoR projects would be to improve the
debugging experience. Right now the only way to get JRuby on Rails
debugging to work in NetBeans is by setting an undocumented property
in a config file. And even then, it's quite buggy. From what I
understand Netbeans needs to have the fast debugger supported in JRuby
before this situation will improve. I would be willing to lend a hand
on this if someone could point me in the right direction. I've done a
ton of Java and am doing more Ruby all the time, but I'm not too
familiar with the internals of JRuby or how this would need to work.
Hi Chris,
I've rewritten a lot of ruby_debug.c (76kB of C code) into the JRuby
based Java code. I started with empty skeleton written by Charles
(src/org/jruby/debug/RubyDebugBaseLibrary.java in headius branch).
Currently I'm having:
Context.java
DebugBreakpoint.java
DebugEventHook.java
DebuggerContext.java
DebuggerDef.java
DebuggerFrame.java
Debugger.java
RubyDebugBaseLibrary.java
Util.java
But it's one big mess, since I started in very similar position as you.
A lot of Java coding, some Ruby coding, 8+ year ago C coding. So I'm
still deleting and rewriting what I wrote as I'm getting into the JRuby
APIs (BTW purely documented guys! ;) )
Ups. Should be "poorly". Sorry :)
