Do Ruby/Rails/whoever often have releases that break backwards compatibility?
- stevefarnworth 16y agoSome gems don't function correctly with Ruby 1.9.1, and a lot have minor issues with Rails 3. Although sometimes it's more an issue with the documentation as opposed to code issues.
- apotheon 16y agoIt varies, re: Ruby, moving from 1.8 to 1.9 (the latter of which is basically the difference between major versions, though for some reason they aren't calling it 2.0). I think things are worse in this regard for Rails than for Ruby.
