Shoes.setup gem bombs on OSX about shoes-deprecated

[rubiesonthesky]

(I'm new to this git thing, and don't know how this works)

I had also problems with Shoes 3.1 when trying to use rubygems, even the sample rubygems didn't work. One error was that US_ASCII was causing problems in Shoes.app/Contents/MacOS/ruby/lib/common.rb

I changed row 226 from end.force_encoding(Encoding::US_ASCII) to end#.force_encoding(Encoding::US_ASCII)

So now it works! :)

I am getting this, while trying to install watir and cucumber, its a shame because for what I do it would make life easier to use shoes, but without these I have to stick to native ruby.

Hi there,

sorry about that. Unfortunately this is very unlikely to get fixed as work these days is concentrated on shoes4

Cheers,
Tobi

You should give shoes4 a try. In shoes4, you can just require gems as usual. If you run into any issues there, we are much more able to help :)

Sweet is 4 pretty stable at the moment? I am just undoing a load of system stuff i tried to fix the asci error then i will give it ago.

Well it's close-ish to an alpha release - I wouldn't exactly call that stable though. :-) It's pre alpha but it tries to reimplement the shoes3 behavior most of the way so everything else mostly is a bug =)

[maximillion90]

Well given i spend my life testing software i am sure i can deal with a bit buggy. I'll see what happens.

[PragTob]

We are happy and grateful for any bug reports in any case :-)

Thanks for the help guys, I installed 4 and have been running it and the stuff I wanted to do is working nicely.

Good to hear :)
