Dear IronRuby community,
Were pleased to announce the release of IronRuby 1.1.2. The binaries
and the installer are now available at CodePlex:
http://ironruby.codeplex.com/releases/view/55250.
IronRuby 1.1.2 is a servicing release that keeps on improving
compatibility with Ruby 1.9.2 and includes IronRuby integration to
Visual Studio 2010. We decided to drop 1.8.6 compatibility mode in all
post-1.0 releases. We recommend using IronRuby 1.0 if you need 1.8.6
compatibility.
In this release we fixed several major issues:
- problems that blocked Gem installation in certain cases
- regex syntax: the parser was replaced with a new one that is much
more compatible with Ruby 1.9.2 - crashes or incorrect behavior on Windows Phone 7
The following bugs were fixed:
5728 Unable to create Ruby on Rails project using Visual Studio 2010,
error: can’t convert NilClass into String
5638 IronRuby 1.1.1 + VS2010 Tools Installer does not include Windows

5326 installing rspec gem fails
