Ah yes, gemrc is declarative, not Ruby code which could do things differently depending on the ruby implementation. I got distracted about it not working with “require ‘some_gem’”, and forgot about this fact.
Leaving it with separate directories does not allow IronRuby to use gems installed by Ruby, which would be nice. Ivan’s scenario is where he wants IronRuby to use a gem installed by MRI, but not vice versa. It does beg the question why you would want to do such a thing? Ivan, can you explain your motivation? Today people can either keep their gems completely separate (the default behavior if GEM_PATH is not set), or can chose to share everything in both directions. This should work reasonably well most of the time. Would be nice to just leave it at that since it’s a simple solution. For scenarios where you want more control, the user can do something specific to the solution. For example, http://www.mail-archive.com/rubygems-develop...@rubyforge.org/msg02295.html describes how you could copy lib\rubygems\default.rb.

Jimmy’s solution might be the best so far (leaving it with the separate directories). JD From: Shri Borde Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2009 2:52 PM To: Shri Borde; ironruby-core@rubyforge.org Subject: RE: [Ironruby-core] require 'spec' not working The solution seems to be using a gemrc file. http://blogs.sun.com/mandy/entry/rubygems_etc_gemrc describes the file, but says that it is only used by the gem command, and not honored by a “require ‘somgem’”. However, http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/rubygems-developers/2008-September/004056.html says that this was a bug and has been fixed.

We can figure out some way to get ir.exe to pick this up as well, like adding code to %HOME%\.irconfig.rb. Tomas, do we still support .irconfig.rb? I couldn’t find anything while grepping the sources.

Using GEM_PATH is the right solution as you would be using the power of rubygems to find the gems. You should run “igem query --local --name-matches spec” to make sure that RubyGems will indeed be able to find the gem. I wish there was a verbose mode where gem could tell you the paths it looked in, but I don’t see anything at http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/10#page35. Does anyone know of a verbose option?
