= duby * http://kenai.com/projects/duby == DESCRIPTION: Duby is a customizable programming language featuring static types, local type inference and a heavily Ruby-inspired syntax. Duby currently includes a typer/compiler backend for the JVM which can output either JVM bytecode or Java source files. == FEATURES/PROBLEMS: * Ruby syntax * Compiles to .class or .java * Fast as Java == SYNOPSIS: duby <script.duby> duby -e "inline script" dubyc <script.duby> dubyc -e "inline script" # produces DashE.class dubyc -java <script.duby> dubyc -java -e "inline script" # produces DashE.java == REQUIREMENTS: * JRuby 1.5.0 or higher. * BiteScript 0.0.5 or higher == INSTALL: If your "gem" command is the one from JRuby: * gem install duby Otherwise: * jruby -S gem install duby Only JRuby is supported at this time. == For Java tools: To build the Duby jars from source you should have a checkout of both jruby and bitescript in Duby's parent directory. Run "ant jar-complete" in jruby, then in the duby directory "../jruby/bin/jruby -S rake jar" to build the Duby jar. Use "jar:complete" instead to produce a free-standing jar file with JRuby and the JRubyParser libraries included.
