Hi, Depenbding on whether running under windows or unix/mac I obviously need to use the \ instead of the / character for shell commands so I have 2 questions really 1) I would love to know if anyone has a neat way of dealing with converting paths to use '\' instead of '/' for use with command line calls like command and backtick?
2) How to determine the applications Operating System environment? This is the function I need it for def create_command_line_string(cmd) result = Rails.root.join(cmd) logger.debug("@@@@ - #{result}") result end Any ideas or pointers would be greatly appreciated -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
