Forum: Radiant CMS Problems with Radiant and vendor/gems load order

All,

Rails 2.3.8
Radiant 0.9.1 (vendored)
Bundler 1.0.2

Yet another "this was just working, what the hell happened?"

My custom Radiant extension is dependent on a gem that I have in
RAILS_ROOT/vendor/gem.  I can see that my extension is loading before
the gem does and so that dependency is failing.

I am not sure how my load order got screwed up.

Do I just need to require my gem as usual in config/environment.rb or is
there some Radiant specific way to make the gems be loaded first?

Thanks,
Wes

Wes,
Radiant bundles rails, so your version of rails should be irrelevant.
What would be helpful is some sample code.
Have you tried requiring the gem from within your extension?

I have a similar problem.
Jim, how do you require the gem from within the extension?

require 'whatever' at the top of the extension file.

This was a problem that I had with Devise and assumptions that it makes
when defining helper methods for inclusion into controllers.

I'll provide more detail later.

i actually had a different problem (my gem folder was empty!) sorry
