Hi,
I ran into a pretty weird issue, I tried to use some of the .NET ORM's with
IronRuby.
I haven't investigated with the debugger turned on yet but here's what I
observed
I tried this with ActiveRecord from Castle, SubSonic and LightSpeed.
Linq2Sql doesn't have a problem.
What the first 3 ORM's have in common is that I can use the types in the
actual ORM library. All of those ORM's require you to have a generic base
class.
If I include other types in the assembly (non generic base classes) then I
can just use those classes.
When I create a type with a generic base class that is defined in the same
assembly I can use that class in IronRuby
For SubSonic a Customer class could look like:
*public class Customer : ActiveRecord<Customer>{
// model code here
}*
The output from the console session that shows the behavior. I tried a lot
of different approaches but it always boils down to the same error.
*IronRuby 0.1 on .NET 2.0.50727.1434
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
Note that local variables do not work today in the console.
As a workaround, use globals instead (eg $x = 42 instead of x = 42).
>>> require 'mscorlib'
=> true
>>> require Dir.getwd + '/SubSonic.dll'
=> true
>>> require Dir.getwd + '/DataAccess.SubSonic.dll'
=> true
>>> include DataAccess::SubSonic
=> Object
>>> Customer.new
IronRuby.Libraries:0:in `ConstantMissing': uninitialized constant
Object::Customer (NameError)
from :0:in `main'
from :0:in `##16'
>>> exit*
Is this a bug or is it a case of me missing something?
Cheers
Ivan
