Hello!
What is the rubygems-update package? What is its exact purpose?

I suppose it's for updating rubygem itself. I've downloaded it, but I don't
understand, how am I suppose to use it? Is the update already done once it is
installed? Or do I have some commands to run after that?

Thanks in advance for any clue,
Lionel Thiry

After you install it, you do `update_rubygems` to complete the
upgrade. Hopefully will finally fold this into a firstclass feature
this weekend.

Hi y'all,
I'm new here so please be kind to me

I'm using WinXP Pro, One-click installer Window ruby182-14.exe and
mysql-4.1.10-win32.zip

The code I wrote is : mysql.rb

require 'mysql'

m = Mysql.new("localhost", "ariebanaranakai", "iwakkaring", "budiman")
r = m.query("SELECT username, password FROM user");
r.each_hash do |f|
print "#{f['username']} . #{f['password']}"
end

The Error I got is :

/mysql.rb:3: uninitialized constant Mysql (NameError)
from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/loadpath_manager.rb:5:in
'require__'
from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/loadpath_manager.rb:5:in
'require'
from mysql.rb:1

What's the matter with this ? I've searched the archieves but found
nothing
I've also asked rubyist mailing list in my country but they averagely
said they never get the problem like I do :'(

Please help me and thanks a lot.

replace that last line with these:

require 'rubygems'
require_gem 'mysql'

Can get more help here:

Give your file another name. require 'mysql' might be including
itself instead of the Mysql class.

Argh RubyGems... they do some ugly things with require too. Anyway
try the above suggestion first before worrying about rubygems...
