-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, folks. I am proud to announce the release of Ruby 1.9.1. This is the first stable release of Ruby 1.9 series. Ruby 1.9 is a new series of Ruby. It is modern, faster, with clearer syntax, multilingualized and much improved version of Ruby. Ruby 1.8 series has been used since 2003 and many great products were born on it. Today Ruby 1.9 series starts its history as 1.8 series did. Notice that Ruby 1.8 still remains. 1.8.8 will be released this year. == Changes You can read about major chanes since 1.8.7 at at http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/tags/v1_9_1_0/NEWS . We have fixed 7 bugs since 1.9.1 RC2. http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-19/issues?query_id=11 If you encounter any bugs or any problems, please let us know it via the official issue tracking system (http://redmine.ruby-lang.org ). == Location * ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.1-p0.tar.bz2 SIZE: 7190271 bytes MD5: 0278610ec3f895ece688de703d99143e SHA256: de7d33aeabdba123404c21230142299ac1de88c944c9f3215b816e824dd33321 * ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.1-p0.tar.gz SIZE: 9025004 bytes MD5: 50e4f381ce68c6de72bace6d75f0135b SHA256: a5485951823c8c22ddf6100fc9e10c7bfc85fb5a4483844033cee0fad9e292cc * ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.1-p0.zip SIZE: 10273609 bytes MD5: 3377d43b041877cda108e243c6b7f436 SHA256: 00562fce4108e5c6024c4152f943eaa7dcc8cf97d5c449ac102673a0d5c1943b Thanks, - -- Yugui (Yuki Sonoda) <yugui@yugui.jp> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmDLZ4ACgkQOXzH5JLb/AWYWgCcC2PXYjaV2tCFrO+LFQoObhrM UmIAn0EXvi2E6+aIa+9KCdhKSie+2tcL =fAek -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Now that Ruby 1.9 is released, it seems there is no need for 1.8.7. Is there a possibility that Ruby 1.8.8 will go back to being similar to 1.8.6 and remove the 1.9 compatibility shims? This would make maintaining old 1.8 code much easier. -greg

Capital job, all of you. Nobu, Tanaka Akira, usa, yugui. And especially koichi and matz. A big day for both of you. The new VM is a lot of fun and you've worked so hard. Also, many thanks to this list. I've often encountered Ruby 1.9 "bugs" and confusions, but it was all easily dismissed by finding discussions about the internals which had already transpired here.

JRuby will remain at 1.8.6 compatibility (in 1.8 mode) until such time that users let us know that they want support for 1.8.7+ features. - Charlie

Unless something has changed the Windows builds you can download at garbagecollect are somewhat not completely finished. They are missing parts, and not even documenting which ones. You could write a "hello world" program using the build and perhaps explore some of the features fof the new interpreter but you cannot even install gems. I am not completely sure if anybody uses that stuff and what do they use it for. It just shows Ruby *can* be built for WIndwows I guess. Thanks Michal

I'm having > trouble installing 1.9 > The problem is not with Ruby itself but with the libraries it uses (zlib for gems, readline for irb, openssl for encryption and https networking, sqlite, ...) Most of these use unique build systems and have binaries built for windows with different compilers. To link this all together with Ruby is a recipe for disaster. For that reason Luis is working on a new One Click installer which builds all the libraries and ruby from source using the MinGW compiler. Unfortunately not all of the libraries build well in the MinGW environment out of the box (or on Windows at all) so the project requires lots of tedious work. There are only development and testing releases of this installer. As far as I know no final release that includes at least all the basic parts is available. Thanks Michal
on 31.01.2009 00:37
Cool, thanks!!! I will be patiently waiting :)
on 31.01.2009 00:39
Yeah, I'm having some problems installing too... I can do the compiling,
I'll figure it out, but I can't figure out how I get the tools needed to
do
it, the win32 readme said I needed these:
Note: building ruby requires following commands.
* nmake
* cl
* lib
* dumpbin
I have nmake, but how do I acquire the others? Google isn't helping me.

Thanks for this awesome release! I was particularly interested in C-derrived languages due to my experience with a scripting and config language based on C. However, after some days of Ruby, I quickly got the gripe of the dynamic, simple, yet powerful language and started to discover the wonders this higher level language has to offer. Pulled some friends into it, and have been able to learn from more advanced programmers. Since then i've been developing Ruby and Rails applications with a lot of fun; anything is basically easy to do. Anyway, enough fan-talk! Got a MinGW build ready and roling; Don't know if it's acustomed to share, or self compile / wait for one click?
