When trying to debug a Rails 3 app with RadRails 2.0.4, I’m running into
a problem with gem loading, apparently. See below for a stack trace.
That problem disappears, when I move Gemfile out of the way, but, of
course, then other necessary gems aren’t loaded.
From my Debug Configuration
Project:
File: script/rails
Working Directory: /home/michael/aptana/
Interpreter Arguments: -e STDOUT.sync=true -e STDERR.sync=true -e
load(ARGV.shift)
Programm Arguments: server --debugger --environment=development –
port=3000
Interpreter: standard /usr/bin/ruby
I’ve tried adding/removing ruby-debug and ruby-debug-ide to the Gemfile
in any order and at the top-level as well as in the :development group.
I think, but are far from sure, that RadRails and Bundler are of devided
minds as to which gems are active when. First, RadRails directly runs
rdebug-ide, which runs script/rails which causes bundler to mangle which
gems are active. In the file, where the error occurs, there’s a
require ‘ruby-debug/processor’
and that succeeds. But possibly it loads the wrong file, i.e. not the
one from ruby-debug, but the one from ruby-debug-ide. The later does
indeed not define Debugger::CommandProcessor. (I’m using Ruby 1.8.7 and
this might matter here.)
I’ve tried my luck with the latest beta of Aptana Studio 3 as well, but
that wasn’t a pleasant experience, either.
I’m hoping someone has an idea how to get around this problem. I’m also
taking suggestions for other Linux-based(!) IDEs with suitable debugging
abilities
