I wonder if that means OS X's ruby will be upgraded finally.
- andymoe 14y agoMaybe, but I can guarantee it won't get done until 10.9 comes out. EDIT: If you really want to see the level of effort for them to do this go buy OS X Server from the app store and dig around for ruby files ;-)
- cleverjake 14y agoI wouldn't be surprised if thats the case, but its not like 1.8.x being sunset was a surprise to anyone - 1.9 is 4+ years old. Hopefully someone has been working on it up to now
- stock_toaster 14y agoIf not, maybe they can skip straight to 2.0.
- gurkendoktor 14y ago> 1.9 is 4+ years old 1.9.1->1.9.2 had breaking changes (most obviously require_relative) and 1.9.2 had performance issues in requiring files. I haven't run into any issues with Ruby 1.9.3, but it's only 1.5 years old, and even 1.9.3 was not 100% backwards compatible. I understand that this all seems like eternity if you are actively developing a Ruby app, but for everything that is in maintenance mode, 1.8.7 has been a very sane choice until now. I had certainly planned to use it another couple years if possible. :/
