The point of my email was: Use RVM to install 1.9.2 or jRuby or whatever. Install MacRuby from source or the package, and execute it using `macruby`, `macirb`, and the like. There is no reason to overload `ruby` to point at macruby, which is the only real benefit RVM gets you. On Fri, May 20, 2011 at 8:09 PM, Mark Rada <mrada@marketcircle.com> wrote:
I have been using rvm with MacRuby a while now, mostly for the use of gemsets. I have been able to switch between MacRuby 0.10 and the "nightly" builds without issue including several different gemsets for "nightly" builds.
However, there will be issues if you are developing with Xcode. But they are pretty easy to keep up with.
1. Outside of an rvm enabled shell, the most recently installed version of MacRuby is the default.
2. Similarly, using gems with an app will require you to install the gems using macgem explicitly (or setting your GEM_PATH to point to where rvm is storing stuff).

Last week I attempted to install RVM on my system so I could use various versions of Ruby including Macruby. I encountered problems including a reinstall of RVM that had incorrect permissions. However, it is quite possible that all the errors were the result of my naviety about the ruby environment so I'm willing to give it another go.
Has anyone else used RVM with Macruby and does it work well? Can I safely run multiple versions of Macruby? Will it alter or contaminate the regular installed version?
Any advice would be appreciated.
