[MacRuby-devel] Compiled Ruby files

[Robert Rice]

Hi Laurent:

Thanks.

The other problem I ran into trying to use blue folders was that XCODE would not compile .XIB files into .NIB files for subdirectories of the Resources folder. Could I change this behavior?

MacRuby has become stable and fast but if I have a program error that loops, it will consume memory until the Finder crashes (requiring a reboot). Would it be possible to set a limit on the call stack depth to generate an error before the system crashes?

We don't compile the whole standard library for historical reasons, as the AOT compiler wasn't stable enough to work on everything, but we may finally turn the switch on in the upcoming release.
