installing RadRails on Eclipse ...........

I could not find a proper answer when i wanted to install RadRails on eclipse . This is how it is done , .... in the Eclipse menu go to Help-->Software Updates --> Find and Install.... then in the pop - up window which appears ,.. Search for new features to install and then click next and then u will have to add 2 new remote sites, .. the details for the sites are the ones which were very difficult to obtain , they are site 1 : Name :RadRails URL : http://radrails.sourceforge.net/update site 2 : Name :RDT URL : http://updatesite.rubypeople.org/release then click on finish , u are almost done with the installation , u have to just follow the instructions from here on to finish the installation .

Installing qt4-ruby bindings !!

i installed the qt4-ruby bindings just now. It is a little confusing ( for me atleast), so i describe here the process to install the bindings, (for linux, i am using Fedora 8)..... -> install qt4 on your system -> get the qt4-ruby bindings from the RUBYFORGE site or from the following link, the following link might contain an old version , so go to the rubyforge site for the latest stuff, .... http://www.filekeeper.org/download/eerpini/qt4-ruby-1.4.10.tgz -> install cmake on the system if it is already not present on a Fedora system u can do this by just using 'yum install cmake' -> then extract the archive and change to that directory , -> then run ' cmake .' this will automatically configure and create makefiles . -> then run ' make ' this should automatically install the bindings, just write a sample ruby program to check if it works !
