Re: [ANN] JRuby 1.6.0.RC1 released

From: Charles Oliver Nutter <headius@...>
Date: 2011-01-15 02:29:09 UTC
List: ruby-talk #376929
I could see making the 'env' change, but so far we have been unable to
get a fully-functional sh-based 'jruby' executable. There's enough
bashisms we depend on that it's hard to make a conversion...and sadly
we're not sh experts, so we don't know the right way to make it
happen.

If there are sh experts out there, we would appreciate help coming up
with a portable sh-based 'jruby' script. We have a start, in jruby.sh
(may or may not be in the distributions), but it's missing things from
the bash version: cygwinisms, proper quoting of arguments, and so on.
I attempted to fix the quoting, but it seems sh is simply crippled
here, lacking the bash arrays we use for processing arguments. Help is
needed.

https://github.com/jruby/jruby/blob/master/bin/jruby.sh

The alternative which may help many of you would be to install the
'jruby-launcher' gem. This is a native executable that downloads,
installs, and replaces the 'jruby' command with a real binary. It
should route around any issues with bash, env, or sh.
