Hi
I'm new to this list. If my question is just repeating the asked
questions, I am sorry for that.
On the JRuby website it mentions JRuby 1.0.1 is a "Ruby 1.8.5"
compatible interpreter written in 100% pure Java. But the current
release for Ruby is 1.8.6-p110. My question is why JRuby only compatible
with Ruby 1.8.5? What is missing in JRuby 1.0.1 if compared with Ruby
1.8.6-p110? Is there any plan for JRuby to "upgrade" to the same release
level with Ruby?
Thanks for the reminder. The only real difference (other than behavior
differences we don't know about) is that we've been shipping with the
1.8.5 standard library. Upgrading is largely just updating stdlib.
We won't upgrade for 1.0.2 (or probably for any 1.0 release) but I'll
file a bug so we update for 1.1 final.
