Presentation: "JRuby: The Beauty and Power of Ruby on the JVM"
Track:
Real-World Ruby
Time: Monday 11:00 - 12:00 Location: SAS Nortvegia
Abstract:
JRuby is fast becoming the standard Ruby in large enterprises and Java organizations. JRuby on Rails runs multiple production sites and applications. JRuby with Swing is becoming a popular GUI development combination. Ruby has arrived on the Java platform! In this session, we'll demonstrate several reasons why Ruby is such a great language on the JVM, calling Java libraries and integrating frameworks quickly and easily. We'll demonstrate bringing a JRuby on Rails application up on a Java webapp server and show how to call Java APIs from Rails. And we'll demonstrate the advanced capabilities of Ruby support in the NetBeans IDE. |
