Ruby 1.8.4 One-Click Installer 4
UPDATE 2 Curt has let me know that he’s changing the installer to at least warn you that uninstalling 1.8.2 (which you’ll be prompted to do if you already have it, like I did) will wipe out all of your installed gems.
UPDATE: On my machine, installing 1.8.4 wiped out my Rails gems. I’ll try to find out more info and post here again.
The final version of the one-click installer for Ruby 1.8.4 is now available here.
is the man. On behalf of the Ruby community on Windows, thanks Curt!
It probably uninstalls the previous version... which does this:
Execute: "c:\ruby\installer\ruby_env.exe" uninstallc:\ruby--with-rubygems
I wanted to email you guys and ask if you could maybe put together a post for .net developers looking to make the jump to rails.
for example, what books you suggest (I guess the links to the left suffice), what type of dev environment do you have configured for windows, what app do you use to author your rails classes, what tools you use, etc.
also, have you ever taken a look at Castle Monorail?

I haven't used it myself but I use Castle Windsor for my DI and thought it would be relative to .net peeps looking for ruby like design.
Kevin, check out the .NET to Rails survival guide I posted a while back. Haven't had a chance to take a look at MonoRail in a long time... but looks like it is maturing quickly.
thanks! will do.
