Aptana – RadRails – Eclipse

Reading this article:

JRuby on Rails in Eclipse IDE with WebTools Platform and RadRails

I stumbled over the fact that I couldn’t install RadRails into my freshly downloaded Eclipse 3.3 (Europa) without satisfying an Aptana-related dependency. This made me angry at first, then on second thought I figured out how to get the entire thing running. Here’s what you have to do:

• Go to Help -> Software Updates -> Find and Install … new features … add 2 update sites there: Aptana (http://update.aptana.com/update/studio/3.2/site.xml), RadRails (http://update.aptana.com/install/rails/3.2/)
• Install Aptana RadRails and the Aptana Eclipse Integration

Simple, right? But the existence of Aptana Eclipse Integration is not documented anywhere, hence I had to search a little.

Have fun using RadRails in Eclipse :-)
