@Evan, I suspect for the Torquebox guys it is relevant to compare deployment scenarios that people commonly use. Torquebox+JRuby against common MRI deployments is what they are competing against. Taking Ruby impl as an independent dimension does not buy them much in attracting users (although it would be interesting to see).

Give our jruby-1.6.0.RC1 native installer a try. This installer ships with our new win32ole implementation which may or may not work better than a cygwin build of Ruby (it is a new implementation and all). http://www.jruby.org/download.

All you should need to use it is "require 'win32ole'".

Weird...I swear I have responded to this once...seems to be lost in the commenting system.

The installer is free to use, but I think you mean the installer software we used to make the installer? If so, then the software use for the installer is install4j which is a commercial product.

That would be an excellent tutorial. We will probably do a tutorial (or blog entry) like that in the future. We learned quite a bit from setting up Hudson and we should share that knowledge.

We have heard comments similar to yours from others. What were some of the your worst pain points? Do you think JRuby would have helped in those cases? If we can make all Ruby impls improve on Windows that would be ideal, but if there is something JRuby can address we can probably make it a reality quickly.

The installer is of course free to use, but we use the commercial project install4j to generate it for us. So it was not made with free software.

Thanks...quite right about the check. We really need to lobby for an RbConfig::windows? or some place to make this much easier to check.

Dependency management is something we will tackle, but not for this first iteration. The boundaries of mixing ant and rake together is fairly clear. Dependency management is a little less straightforward (at least to me).

We do have some folks who are working on exposing all maven artifacts as Ruby gems, but this is only for retrieving a graph of dependencies and not specifying them.

Yeah, I limited my comments almost exclusively to the moving parts of the JVM and stayed away from all of the Java libraries which exist. Java Libraries and especially pure-Java libraries are a huge arsenal of extra options for someone using JRuby. This is doubly important if you are at a job where people have a lot of proprietary Java code in-house.
