It provides the compliers and necessary headers to successfully build software on a Mac. The package is about 800Mb last time I looked. An older version can be found on either the system or application disk that ships with your Mac. I cannot say whether or not xCode contains any editors but it certainly is not one itself. Regardless, if you are going to develop in Ruby on a Mac using native mode gems then the xCode package must be installed. Once xCode is installed I strongly recommend that you install RVM (http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/) before doing anything else. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
