If you first require 'rubygems' you shouldn't need to set any paths. Tomas

I've been able to successfully require an installed gem but to do so I had to explicitly add the path it was installed in to the app.config LibraryPaths setting. If I have to do that for every gem it's going to end up being a very long parameter. Is there a library path I can specify so that IronRuby will search beneath it to when doing requires? My code looks like: var setup = ScriptRuntimeSetup.ReadConfiguration(); var scriptRuntime = Ruby.CreateRuntime(setup); ScriptEngine scriptEngine = Ruby.GetEngine(scriptRuntime); string script = "require 'httpclient'\n" + "print 'hello\n'"; scriptEngine.Execute(script); The require works with a LibraryPath setting of: <set language='Ruby' option='LibraryPaths' value='C:\Data\Dev\IronRuby\ironruby-1.0v4\lib\ironruby;C:\Data\Dev\IronRuby\ironruby-1.0v4\lib\ruby\1.8;C:\Data\Dev\IronRuby\ironruby-1.0v4\lib\ironruby\gems\1.8\gems\httpclient-2.1.5.2\lib;'/> I would have thought instead of C:\Data\Dev\IronRuby\ironruby-1.0v4\lib\ironruby\gems\1.8\gems\httpclient-2.1.5.2\lib I would specify C:\Data\Dev\IronRuby\ironruby-1.0v4\lib\ironruby\gems\1.8\gems and sub directories would be automatically searched?
