Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] packaging ruby within an RC app

[Jon B. <jo...@gm...>]

You know what is a good app to check out ...

http://infinitenil.com/packrat/

Download it and jump into /Applications/PackRat.app/Contents/ 
Resources and take a look @ how his "lib" and rb_main.rb are laid  
out.  I found it be pretty helpful, although still not sure if it was  
all generated by standalonify + if this is the "standard" way to do it.

In a nutshell (just remember to load REXML first):
COCOA_APP_RESOURCES_DIR = File.dirname(__FILE__)
$LOAD_PATH.reject! { |d| d.index(File.dirname 
(COCOA_APP_RESOURCES_DIR))!=0 }
$LOAD_PATH << File.join(COCOA_APP_RESOURCES_DIR,"ThirdParty")
$LOAD_PATH << File.join(File.dirname(COCOA_APP_RESOURCES_DIR),"lib")
$LOADED_FEATURES << "rubycocoa.bundle"
ENV['GEM_HOME'] = ENV['GEM_PATH'] = File.join 
(COCOA_APP_RESOURCES_DIR,"RubyGems")

HTH,

- Jon
