So apparently the reason ferret doesn't work with jruby is because jruby doesn't work with native c extension gems. Apparently the authors of c extension gems need to provide a jruby version of their gem. I don't think this will happen with ferret because ferret is a port of the java lucene engine to ruby. I am guessing that the author isn't too interested in porting his c/ruby port of a java app back to java so we can run jruby. I'm drafting an email to the creator of jruby now to confirm all of this.
This might finally be the reason to switch to sphinx. I'll keep everyone posted. cheers, steve --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lovd by Less" group.
