Irb can see the gem but ruby can't

Ruby
#1

Hey all,

I am not sure if this is a Leopard on Ruby problem or some other quirk
(or
maybe I am just horribly overlooking something) but…:

Macintosh:manav mbp$ irb

require ‘yahoofinance’
=> true

Macintosh:manav mbp$ cat yahoo_test.rb
require ‘yahoofinance’
Macintosh:manav mbp$ ruby yahoo_test.rb
yahoo_test.rb:1:in `require’: no such file to load – yahoofinance
(LoadError)
from yahoo_test.rb:1

i.e. irb can see the gem but ruby can’t…
Any ideas?

Cheers,
Peter

your ~/.irbrc has:

require “rubygems”

Probably your .irbrc requires rubygems while your script doesn’t.

HTH,
