Ruby for Java Developers

Ruby for Java Developers

My article on the Ruby Developer's Kit has just been published by the IBM Developer Works site. The RDT is not a full-blown IDE for Ruby yet, but it does have excellent support for debugging Ruby code, which is a huge win for me. I've debugged some pretty hairy Ruby code in it (including code that does automation in Windows) and have been very happy.

See, I'm trying to find a way to bind the Java and Ruby communities together. Can't we all just get along?

Yeah, you should find ways to say "XML", "Framework", "Aspects", or some other really complicated sounding thing to attract Java developers. Oooh, oooh, what about "dependency injection?"
