JRuby 1.1.4

A new point release of JRuby is now out and about. Great news for anyone using java to run rails apps and all that sort of enterprise stuff.

Why am I, with my desktop computer game, interested in this? Well I've been looking for a system of storing data in a user editable way but also storing some logic with the data. More on this in a future post.

Check out what's new over here.

I'm particuarly happy to see the java intergration layers getting improved as i get the feeling there will be a fair bit of calling ruby methods from java and vice versa in this system.
