RubyInline folder

Ruby

Hi!
“# gem install RubyInline” installs its files in /root/.ruby_inline

Files:
~# ls .ruby_inline/
Inline__ca4f.c Inline__ca4f.so Inline_ImageScience_cdab.c
Inline_ImageScience_cdab.c.old Inline_ImageScience_cdab.so

How can I change the default path for RubyInline instalation?

How can I change the default path for RubyInline instalation?

I don’t have it locally so I can’t check, but it may well be INLINEDIR.

It is indeed INLINEDIR

This has proved quite useful to me since my $HOME is shared among five
different *nixes.

Using a certain rails app, I was having problems with permissions
because rubyinline was inside /root folder.

Added this line in config/environment.rb:
ENV[‘INLINEDIR’] ||= ‘/var/www/olio/webapp/rails/trunk/tmp’

Now, it works :slight_smile:
