Re: [PhillyOnRails] Ruby in a JVM


Has anyone here used JRuby yet? From what I read quickly I thought their might be some ability to create byte code, but maybe I'm mistaken.

Anyone have any news on Ruby 2.0 or JRuby in regards to byte code?

At the second to last Pub Nite, someone mentioned a JVM-based Ruby

something else, more Sun-centric?

I wasn't there, but I would guess it is JRuby, at this point Sun employs two of the three core folks working on it. There are a couple Ruby-from-Java libraries out there which are JNI based, but to my knowledge none of them are particularly reliable or powerful.
