Adding the Ruby builder to your RadRails project

To add the ruby validator to your project, open your .project file (at the root of your project).

And add:

<buildCommand>
    <name>org.rubypeople.rdt.core.rubybuilder</name>
    <arguments>
    </arguments>
</buildCommand>

inside the

element.

Refresh eclipse, and wait for it to rebuild everything. Then your files will be checked for correct ruby syntax everytime you save. You will see a little marker everytime there is an error.

Here’s the complete .project file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<projectDescription>
    <name>typo</name>
    <comment></comment>
    <projects>
    </projects>
    <buildSpec>
            <buildCommand>
                    <name>org.rubypeople.rdt.core.rubybuilder</name>
                    <arguments>
                    </arguments>
            </buildCommand>
    </buildSpec>
    <natures>
            <nature>org.radrails.rails.ui.railsnature</nature>
    </natures>
</projectDescription>
  1. In the latest version of RadRails the Ruby builder and Ruby nature get added to new Rails projects. If you have a project from before 0.6 you’ll have to do the above.
