How to grab jrubyfx master into IDEA project

Ruby JRuby
1

sorry, I have always relied on loading gems, but that won’t do if I want
to keep up with the jrubyfx demos . How do I go about hooking up to my
IDE i.e. IDEA other than just treating the whole project as source code
? is there a beta , early access gem for this ?

thanks

In the root directory of the source, ‘rake gem’ creates the gem as
‘pkg/jrubyfx-*-java.gem’. Would that help you?

well sure, had not checked for that.

Unfortunately it seems that IDEA wants to see it under a repository i.e.
http since I couldn’t get it to list that one not even if I added the
respective path to the IDEA gem repositories, furthermore the version
number is set for 0.9.2 which it clearly isn’t since that’s what is
currently published and of different source.

Anyhow, I did create the gem and installed it locally i.e. via the
command line which IDEA picks up via the referenced SDK. That then
allowed me to run the demo.rb from IDEA and I was also able to set
breakpoints and thus interact.

So I’m at a good place now, thanks. Hopefully one can construct more
complex FXML apps along the lines shown in the Oracle Intro Videos to
FXML / Scene Builder
