Does the "require 'rubygems'" bring in some code that effectively replaces the ruby 'require'? I see a bunch of stuff in "boot.rb" in the rails app that relates to rubygems. Does this replace the ruby require mechanism as soon as the app starts up? I have the latest rubygems installed. It looks almost as though something must be going wrong with that. > > thanks, > jp -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
