It’s been over a year in development but now we are all ready to launch! By far the biggest update we’ve ever made to Ruby In Steel Developer, version 1.2 will be released on Monday 21st of April 2008.
As regular readers of this blog will know, the really big new feature in RiS 1.2 is The Visual Rails Workbench - a powerful drag-and-drop design-and-code environment for Ruby On Rails applications.
In fact, there are numerous other new features too such as the much enhanced Cylon Ruby (and Rails) debugger. This now has tracepoints, conditional breakpoints, dynamic debugging (evaluate code and change variable values on the fly) and support for JRuby.
For more information see the Overview of Ruby In Steel 1.2, The Features List and the Manual.
