Ruby 1.9.1 RC1 was released today so I quickly moved to install it (a test version of course using a suffix of 19).

Trying ...

I noticed that class variables @@my_class var are now looked up in the context of the instance_eval'd object in Ruby 1.9.1 whereas this was not the case in Ruby 1.8.6. What are some other differences in behaviour of instance_eval for Ruby 1.9.1 ? ...
Is there a good library/gem for accessing Amazon SQS from ruby1.9? The Amazon ruby example and right_aws do not work as-is with ruby1.9. I'd strongly prefer something that's known to work under reasonably heavy load (a few hundred thousand queue items or more per day). ...
I'm currently using the RubyTidy Ruby bindings for HTML tidy to make sure HTML I receive is well-formed. Currently this library is the only thing holding me back from getting a Rails application on Ruby 1.9. Are there any alternative libraries out there that will tidy up chunks of HTML on Ruby 1.9? ...
Unfortunately, the Unicode 0.1 (sudo gem install unicode) doesn't work on Ruby 1.9.

Is there a way of converti...
This question is not about how to use Enumerators in Ruby 1.9.1 but rather im curious how they work. Here is some code: class Bunk def initialize @h = [*1..100] end def each if !block_given? enum_for(:each) else 0.upto(@h.length) { |i| yield @h[i] }...

I've setup Ruby 1.9.1 (p234) on a Ubuntu server. I'm trying to deploy a Rails app which vendors Rails 2.3-stable on Apache 2.2/Passenger 2.2.5. GET requests work fine, POST requests break immediately with the following log entry: Processing UsersController#new (for 80.203.77.44 at 2009-10-24 20:54:55) [GET] Parameters: {"controller"=...

From now on, development won't need to ensure backward-compatibility with Ruby 1.8.6. For the sake of curiosity, I tried to run the test suite of a couple of projects against Ruby 1.9...
Why does this work the way it does? I thought it had something to do with pass-by-reference/value, but that's not the case. Does it have something to do with the new block scopes? def strip_ids(array) array.each{ |row| row.reject! {|k, v| k =~ /_id/ } } end class Foo attr_accessor :array def initialize @array = [] @array...

I checked out the latest Ruby version, to play a bit with the latest changes. The first thing I tried to do was call a Ruby lambda/block/proc just like you'd do with a Python callable. a = lambda {|x| puts x} a.call(4) # works, and prints 4 a[4] # works and prints 4 a.(4) # same a(4) # undefined method 'a' for main:Object Why isn't th...
