@witlessworm You should try to tap @tom_enebo or @nicksieger...I'm going to be in Ireland that day.
Submitted my C1 paper "Beyond Impossible: How JRuby Evolved the Java Platform". All about peripheral work/research to make JRuby possible.
@hkarthik I don't think he tried JRuby because he needed something he could embed into a C app. JRuby works fine and does avoid many leaks.
@diathesis It was a Java conference poll, and Groovy and Scala are obviously closer to Java syntax. We're going to Java confs more soon.
@weyus Feel free to stop by IRC if you need some help with that thorny problem :)
Did my first snowblowing of the year, removing last week's remnants in preparation for tonight's blizzard. So begins the winter hackfest!
Ok, so I'm going to be in Dublin around Jan 7-8 for the Irish Java Tech Conf. Trying to set schedule now...any other events, groups, etc?
@jimweirich We struggled in silence because we figured changing it would be an imposition. But if possible, it would sure be nice.
@daveshemenski You certainly could. You could also just instantiate multiple org.jruby.Ruby instances and use them across threads. No prob.
@karld Rails 2.2 is out for a while now, and it works really well...or did I miss some context? Can't upgrade?
@marknutter Sometimes I miss that pre-final tension.
@danny_l BTW, glad you enjoyed the newer parts of the talk. I know you've seen the jirb demo many times, but it's a classic...gotta do it.
@grantmichaels Ok, I hear ya. Yeah, "get a f'ing Mac" will help for sure. Or at least getting off Windows. Be sure to use OS X JDK 1.6. FAST
@caseyf FWIW, we really *should* be faster on everything; there's probably just something broken that template rendering uses.
@caseyf @tom_enebo has actually been investigating poor view-rendering perf the past couple days. Seems to be exacerbated by partials.
@grantmichaels If you get a lock-up again, try Ctrl+\ (*nixes), Ctrl+Break (Windows), or send sigquit to the process to get a thread dump.
@danny_l It was called JMonkeyEngine. Bug @tom_enebo to release his king_pong source somewhere (and maybe a JME-wrapping gem too).
@sangamon What sort of JRuby OpenSSL issues are you having?
@kevintyll Well, the multi-threading doesn't help Passenger as much as JRuby you know. We only need a single process, ever.
@grantmichaels The scan issue is resolved on trunk and 1.1.6RC2..it will be in 1.1.6 final next week, or you can grab nightlies.
