Could you make this stuff (tests, etc) available on the net, over at RubyForge or wherever is convenient. I want to chip in some work for that, but I can't justify too much right now - the JRuby RDT plugin offers to many chances for features. One thing I'd like to look at is the Bindings problem - ie. RDT can't show Variables for a JRuby process, because the JRuby tracing system doesn't provide the right type of object. Having a basic Test system available would be nice. murphee -- Blog @ http://jroller.com/page/murphee Maintainer of EclipseShell @ http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
