Hey all, We are trying to get another release of RadRails before the Canada on Rails conference. We are trying to finish off our support for the new features of Rails 1.1 and will need another build of RDT.
I think we should do what we can to support them and try and get a release out the door.
Matt and I are on to fix some issues slated for next release but to be realistic I'm proposing a 0.7.1 build or something of the sort, not a complete 0.8 release.
I think an 0.8.0 release (at least a release candidate) is do-able. We already have a lot of functionality since the 0.7.0 release, and it's been working fine for me (I patched bugs with the new browsing stuff locally, but until just now SF.net's CVS was down so I just checked them in).
The only bug I'd like to see fixed for an 0.8.0 is the Fixnum syntax highlighting - we highlight numbers inside identifiers (like method names) when we shouldn't. Beyond that I'd encourage everyone to try out a copy of the nightly build and make sure what's in there is stable - particularly Ruby browsing, handling of RJS/RXML, the new class wizard, template insertion via content assist, code formatting and the goto matching bracket action.
There's release related tasks I'd like to see happen as well, but they should be able to be done post-release - particularly, I'd like to use RadRails experience to help us create some single-download releases of 0.8.0 - so you pick the download for your platform and get the bare minimum stuff you need to run RDT (plus maybe some branding like splash loader screen, icon, etc).
We plan on adding support for RJS and RXML which are just additions to extension types on ruby editor and the RemoteTestRunner script. Those are the most critical changes that need to be made.
RJS/RXML support are already in the latest nightly and current CVS head (at least for building/parsing/editing - not sure what you mean for RemoteTestRunner).
So, can this happen by the end of the weekend? The conference is next weds-fri and we need to get our full support for Rails 1.1 out the door.
This is up to our unofficial build master Markus. Do you have any time to get a release out by the weekend?
