Once again after some work and outside contribution we have another release If you missed the original announcement, rubycomplete provides a vim7 omni-completion function (code completion) for vim. It is based on complete.rb, pycomplete.vim and ccomplete.vim. Any input is welcome. I’ve joined up with the vim-ruby team, so you’ll find rubycomplete.vim in cvs at [http://vim-ruby.rubyforge.org](http://vim-ruby.rubyforge.org) in addition to my site which will only carry my full releases. ## Whats New: - Renamed per discussion on completion file naming on the vim-dev mailing list - In-buffer class parsing and completion - You can now complete methods for classes defined in the current buffer. If you are within a class definition, the completion code assumes your referencing self. Vim will attempt to load any inherited classes and included modules as required. - Initial rails support - rubycomplete now attempts to figure out if your editing a file that is part of a rails project. If configured to do so, it will load the rails environment ala script/console to allow completion of rails objects. - Bugfixes - missing some range variable definitions - fun crash when completing the list of global symbols [http://blog.hasno.info/blog/segfault/dev/2006/04/10/vim-7-ruby-omni-completion.html](http://blog.hasno.info/blog/segfault/dev/2006/04/10/vim-7-ruby-omni-completion.html) –mark ---

Hi Mark. Thank you for the really nice software. I’ve downloaded rubycomplete from [vim-ruby.rubyforget.org](http://vim-ruby.rubyforget.org) and it worked smoothly. But I have a suggestion for vim-ruby. It seems that the site has never released source after Oct. 7, 2005. Is it possible to release a new version including rubycomplete.rb? Of course, it’s possible to download rubycomplete via CVS, it isn’t seem to be enough. People who does not check CVS (like me) have trouble to find new release. Just my one penny.

Hi. I’ve installed vim7.0e and rubycomplete.rb. In GVIM on Windows XP, everything seemed to be good. Unfortunately, however, it raises the following error when I press ^X, ^O: Error detected while processing function rubycomplete#Complete: line 21: NameError: (eval):143:in `get_completions': (eval):1:in`get\_completions’: uninitialized constant Foo Source code is as below: class Foo def bar end end arr = [] arr.collect f = Foo.new f. \<- I’ve pressed ^X, ^O right after ‘.’ Is this installation problem? Anyone knows why rubycomplete fails in Linux? Sincerely, Minkoo S. ---
