Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 3 Submitted By: Greg Hazel (ghazel) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: data path on Windows (~/.gem is not correct) Initial Comment: rubygems puts things in ~/.gem and ~/.gemrc on Windows, which is not correct. Data like that should be placed in the Application Data folder. This path can be acquired for the current user from the APPDATA environment variable. In addition, the path used by rubygems should not include a dot. So, these would be good: gem_path = File.join(ENV['APPDATA'], 'gem') gemrc_path = File.join(ENV['APPDATA'], 'gemrc') ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=578&aid=27671&group_id=126 _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
