netbeans/rails/malline question

[Fred Obermann]

I am trying to use 'malline' in the context of a rails application
developed in netbeans.

I added a directory 'extras/' under the root on the same level as
'config/'
and dropped in the directory, 'malline/', containing:

erb_out.rb
form_builder.rb
rails.rb
template.rb
view_proxy.rb
view_wrapper.rb
view_xhtml.rb

I added the following to 'config/environment.rb'

config.load_paths += %W( #{RAILS_ROOT}/extras )
require 'malline/rails'

Now this seems like it ought to work, but no!

When I start up webrick I get the following message:

/opt/java/languages/jruby-1.1.2/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/
custom_require.rb:27:in `require': no such file to load -- malline/
rails (MissingSourceFile)
from /opt/java/languages/jruby-1.1.2/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/
rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require'

So, I tried hardcoding the path:

require '/full/path/to/malline/rails'

And I still get the same error message

Pray tell me the error of my ways.

I took a look at the Malline site and gave it a try myself.

I wasn't successful following their instructions for using it as a gem
(I got
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.0.2/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:266:in
`load_missing_constant': uninitialized constant ActionView (NameError)

Nor was I successful using it as a plugin.

The closest that I got was to put the malline directory in
vendors/plugins and not include the require statement (supposedly if you
use as a plugin, you don't need the require statement). If you put it in
vendors/plugins you don't need the config.load_paths statement either.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
