Am having problems testing...

I added 0.2.2 via gem install method..

and following the above I get;

E:\ruby\code\postgres-test>irb -r rubygems
irb(main):001:0> require 'postgres-pr/connection'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> c = Connection.new('dbtest', 'sgeorge')
NameError: uninitialized constant Connection from (irb):2

and so doing a test .rb

require 'rubygems'
require_gem 'postgres-pr/connection', ">= 0.2.2"

c = Connection.new('dbtest', 'sgeorge')
c.query('SELECT 1+2')

It doesnt like it....

e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:116:in `activate':
(Gem::LoadError)
Could not find RubyGem postgres-pr/Connection (>= 0.2.2)
        from e:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:34:in
`require_gem'
        from test.rb:2

I tried even PostgresPR::Connection.new, etc...

can you pass /connection in a reqiure_gem?

hmm so removing the /connection from the require_gem line gets me
test.rb:4: uninitialized constant Connection (NameError)

so... how exactly do I use it??? 

(I have a dbtest created and my username associated to that DB, I
checked that already with psql)....

what exactly am I doing wrong?
