Ruby Weekly News

From: Dave@...
Date: 2002-04-08 05:20:48 UTC
List: ruby-talk #37729
   Ruby Weekly News: 04/07/2002
   
   A summary of activity on the ruby-talk mailing list, brought to you
   this week by Holden Glova.
   
   ANNOUNCEMENTS
   =============
   
   Eclipse Ruby Development Tool
          Adam Williams has commenced working on a Eclipse([1]) plugin to
          support developing Ruby applications. Adams project is very
          young and is welcoming anyone wishing to help. You can check
          out some code and try it out via CVS at RubyEclipse([2]).
          
   Ruby Developers Handbook
          Bob Calco, Rick Kilmer, and Dana Moore announced their recent
          signing of a new Ruby book published by Sams Publishing. The
          book is aimed at being the ultimate hard-core Ruby developer
          book. Great luck with the book guys!
          
   Devel::Logger/1.0.0
          Nakamura Hiroshi announced his latest release of a lightweight
          logging utility called Devel::Logger. Get Devel Logger([3]).
          
   INTERESTING THREADS
   ===================
   
   About efficiency
          A thread surfaced asking for tips on how to make efficient Ruby
          programs. Some suggestions where given in the thread but the
          majority was centered around language design for speed with
          regard to VM's and byte code. Interesting thread to read
          through.
          
   Mixins vs. Multiple Inheritance
          This thread highlightst some of the differences between the
          multiple inhertance and mixin paradigm.
          
   Eval code/design smell?
          The question was asked if the use of eval was a code/design
          smell. Cases where presented for either side of the fence. Read
          through the discussion and formulate your own opinions.
          
   Teach Yourself Ruby in 21 Days
          Teach Yourself Ruby in 21 Days([4]) is now arriving at peoples
          doors with the first reviews starting to come through on -talk.
          All reviews are pointing towards another beautiful sparkling
          ruby book to add to the jewels already available.
          
   Documenting Ruby code
          A thread stared talking about how ri kept up to date with with
          the new and evolving Rub API. This thread shifted slightly
          towards a sneak preview of what the Ruby community may receive
          in future versions of ri. It seems the that ri and RDoc will
          become a much, much tighter family then they currently are.
          
   Google and Ruby
          Google seem to be making a SOAP based API so people can program
          in Google searching support into applications. I think this
          would be great, especially since experimentation is being done
          in Ruby (No idea what the end result will be in).
