Ilya Maykov commented on THRIFT-1204:
-------------------------------------
Michael - thrift is packaged as a gem, so trying to require it without
requiring rubygems first will fail in Ruby 1.8. And rubygems is integrated into
Ruby in 1.9 so the 'require "rubygems"' is a no-op.
However, I'm ok with making these requires conditional on compile-time options
to --gen rb (something like --gen rb:require_rubygems,require_thrift). Thoughts?
> Ruby autogenerated files should require 'thrift' gem

> Key: THRIFT-1204
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1204
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Ruby - Compiler
> Affects Versions: 0.6.1
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Ilya Maykov
> Assignee: Ilya Maykov
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: THRIFT-1204-require-thrift-in-gen-rb-files.patch
>
>
> The gen-rb files currently don't require the thrift gem. This means that the
> user of such a file must explicitly require 'thrift' in his code before
> requiring a gen-rb file, which can be a bit annoying (especially when
> debugging / experimenting in IRB). I propose that we change the compiler to
> add the require at the top of every gen-rb file.
> Patch coming shortly.
