Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] Bundling Gems/Embedding Rubycocoa

[Eloy D. <elo...@gm...>]

Hi,

What I generally do is:
* Create a vendor/gems directory
* Unpack the gems into that directory
* Add the directory to your xcode project as a folder reference (this
means xcode will copy the dir and its contents to the Resources dir
* Add the gem dirs to the load path. For instance something like this
in rb_main.rb:
  Dir.glob("#{File.join(NSBundle.mainBundle.resourcesPath,
'vendor/gems')}/*").each do |gem|
    $:.unshift gem
    require gem
  end

(Note that I just wrote this down and might contain slight errors.)

HTH,
Eloy
