Accessing open-uri from the same directory

Ruby IronRuby

for me the compiled binaries end up in:

C:\tools\ironruby\merlin\main\bin\debug

and this is how the relevant tag looks like in that ir.exe.config file

I know it’s lame but it works for me.

  • C:\tools\ironruby
    (master) » ir
    IronRuby 0.5.0.0 on .NET 2.0.50727.4918

require ‘open-uri’
=> true

Here is the part of the ir.exe.config file.

<microsoft.scripting>



<options>
  <set language="Ruby" option="LibraryPaths"

value="…\Languages\Ruby\libs;…\External.LCA_RESTRICTED\Languages\Ruby\redist-libs\ruby\site_ruby\1.8;…\External.LCA_RESTRICTED\Languages\Ruby\redist-libs\ruby\1.8"
/>

</microsoft.scripting>

Here is the complete ir.exe.config file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<microsoft.scripting>



<options>
  <set language="Ruby" option="LibraryPaths"

value="…\Languages\Ruby\libs;…\External.LCA_RESTRICTED\Languages\Ruby\redist-libs\ruby\site_ruby\1.8;…\External.LCA_RESTRICTED\Languages\Ruby\redist-libs\ruby\1.8"
/>

</microsoft.scripting>

Usually, the one in

C:\ironruby\ironruby\Merlin\Main\Languages\Ruby\Libs

Contains hacks or workarounds to load the correct one from

C:\ironruby\ironruby\Merlin\External.LCA_RESTRICTED\Languages\Ruby\re
dist-libs\ruby\1.8

In other cases, the first one may simply load code from C#.

What does your ir.exe.config look like?
