There are not two copies, one is ruby stdlib, and one is IronRuby's own lib. The ruby stdlib contains pieces implemented in ruby, as well as C. In IronRuby we ported all the C stuff to C# (that's what IronRuby.Libraries.dll is), and redistribute the ruby code. So both directories are all part of the standard library.
For Silverlight, I would suggest you only deploy the files that you use; the entire stdlib is fairly large. ~Jimmy Sent from my phone On Oct 12, 2009, at 3:26 PM, "Zoltan Toth" <li...@ruby-forum.com> wrote: > Once again thanks, we were able to get things working.
