Improving JRuby 1.9 compatibility 0

Posted by david

For some time I've been contributing with the JRuby team fixing bugs and adding some new features, and most of my work has been focused in Ruby 1.9 compatibility.

Yesterday, Nick Sieger wrote a blog about some things to look at JRuby 1.4, and I'd like to add my "from novice to novice" piece of advice.

Run and fix specs can be a tedious task, you can take a look at the latest patches I sent, so I wrote a little script to help me to run them easily:

It has two usage options, it runs all specs under a directory, or you can specify one or some of them to run. I know it's not perfect but it works for my daily work.

Hope it can help you and I'll see your patches soon.
