Subject: Re: including gems with standalone app

hmm.. well, something went wrong.  I already have fastercsv installed, 
so I found a different gem to test this. Installation to this defined 
directory works fine.

C:\InWork\myApp>mkdir gem
C:\InWork\myApp>gem install html-table --install-dir gem
Successfully installed strongtyping-2.0.6-x86-mswin32-60
Successfully installed test-unit-2.0.3
Successfully installed structured_warnings-0.1.1
Successfully installed html-table-1.3.3
4 gems installed


C:\InWork\myApp>cat foo.rb

  require 'rubygems'
  $LOAD_PATH << File.expand_path( File.dirname( __FILE__ ) + '/gem' )
  ENV['GEM_HOME'] = 'gem'
  require 'html-table'
  include HTML

  Table.html_case = "lower"
  Table::Row.end_tags = false
  Table::Row::Data.end_tags = false
  table = Table.new
  tr1 = Table::Row.new
  tr2 = Table::Row.new
  tr3 = Table::Row.new
  tr1.content = "foo", "bar", "baz"
  tr2.content = 1, 2, 3
  tr3.content = %w/hello world/
  table.push( tr1, tr2, tr3 )
  table[0][1].align = "left"
  puts table.html



C:\InWork\myApp>ruby foo.rb

C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in 
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- html-table (LoadError)
        from 
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in 
`require'
        from foo.rb:5


Appears to be ignoring the $LOAD_PATH I set before require this gem.
