I believe that rails 3 support for windows is not released yet. Can I use Netbeans IDE and start working with Rails 3 in windows operating system ?
I have been using rails 3 on my Windows 7 machine but though I am not sure of Netbeans, as I use JetBrains
gem install rails
You can use Rails 3 on Windows fine. I'm not sure about the IDE support, it may be lagging but the framework itself is fine on Windows (7).
Netbeans has syntax highlighting for Rails, if that's what you are asking if rails3 works with Netbeans.

I have recently installed the Aptana plugin for Eclipse as I wish to learn Ruby and Ruby on Rails, it doesn't seem to have changed anything. Usually when I install a plugin of the sort, there will be new project types under the "New Project" menu, but none appeared. I checked tutorials online and they suggest that there should be new project types as seen in the image below, taken from a tutorial.
Instead, I see the same options I did before.
I wondered if the plugin didn't install, but when I try to install it again, It says it's already installed. I am using Eclipse Juno Service Release 2 with a 64-bit Windows 7 operating system and the version of the plugin from the URL given on the Aptana website (http://download.aptana.com/studio3/plugin/install). Any help would be much appreciated.
I don't know why that's happening. Here's a suggestion for how to get around it.
You might be better off installing and running the standalone Aptana Studio product. It would be a separate installation on your desktop, and thus wouldn't have the same settings as any Eclipse installation you already had, and would be more space on your hard drive. But probably there isn't much you would share between Ruby/Rails development and other development, and it's not that much space.
I've done it both ways - installed Aptana into an Eclipse I've already got, and installed the standalone version - and now I would only do standalone.
I don't know what was wrong in the first place, but after I installed the Aptana plugin, I installed the PyDev plugin. I think this removed the Aptana plugin because of conflicting dependencies (I don't know why it wouldn't tell me, though). I tried installing the Aptana plugin again and it told me there was a conflicting dependency with the PyDev plugin, so I uninstalled it and reinstalled the Aptana plugin. It works now.
I have Aptana 3.1.3 standalone for Linux 64bit.
I want to update to 3.2.0 but there are no update urls in my perferences.
I used google but i only found update-urls for the eclipse plugin.
Can some one post me the url to update aptana.
Thanks

I am trying to run RoR on Netbeans 7. I installed everything as given in the documentation. I have Ruby 1.9.2 and Rails 3.0.9 installed on my PC.
Also I have the plugins installed with the Netbeans 7.0
But when I try to create a new project, the progress hangs on 25% and Netbeans stops responding. I have to use task Manager to close the IDE. What is wrong in the scenario? Thank you.
Well help on this will be limited because netbeans no longer supports Rails:
http://netbeans.org/community/news/show/1507.html
Good news though, you don't need netbeans to create a rails project. Just open up your terminal and run:
rails new APP_NAME
Each time I have seen this happen Netbeans is happily awaiting input. When you create the project in Netbeans it executes rails new APP underneath and if that process asks a question, then Netbeans will hang. Check the Netbeans output window (if it's open). You can verify this by creating the rails app on the command line. Once you do that, open the directory with Netbeans and it should recognize the project as a Rails project.
Does IDEA support all the features of rubymine, or is rubymine more refined for rails and IDEA doesn't have all the rubymine features?
The Ruby plugin does include all the features of RubyMine, although the latest version of the Ruby plugin usually requires EAP builds of IntelliJ IDEA. (At the moment, the version of the Ruby plugin for IntelliJ IDEA 9.0.3 does not include all of the new features of RubyMine 2.5 - only the version of the plugin for IntelliJ IDEA X EAP does.)
RubyMine also has a simplified project configuration UI that works better for Rails projects.
I've found this a somewhat dated tutorial for developing a Rails application on Leopard with XCode. Wondering if anyone knows of a more up-to-date (ideally Mac based) tutorial that uses TextMate (or XCode if it's indeed preferred, or even just the command line).
TextMate is appealing to me but wondering how to work scrips like ruby script/generate controller etc. into workflow or if switching between command-line & TextMate is standard operating procedure...
If it matters we have Snow Leopard (10.6) clients and Leopard (10.5) OS X Servers at our disposal.
Thanks..
As with Greg, switching between Textmate and command line is the norm for me.
As for the stuff under the Ruby & Ruby on Rails bundles, most of those are small snippets for use while editing within various files in a Rails application, not really for generating files as you do with the script/generate command.
