FastRI stopped seeing core/stdlib classes

ruby-talk
1

My setup: Ruby 1.8.6.p114 hand-compiled to ~/opt/ruby-1.8.6-p114.

I have a couple of other Ruby installs – Ubuntu’s Ruby 1.8.6.p111 at
the proper FHS location(s), as well as JRuby 1.1.1, Ruby 1.8.7.preview2
and Ruby 1.9.0-1 in ~/opt – but I don’t think this is the cause of the
problem.

My problem: all of a sudden, FastRI (or RI, for that matter) stopped
seeing core and stdlib classes. Running fastri-server -b and -B doesn’t
help.

At first, this problem was common to all the Ruby installs (all with
their respective FastRI gems), but I uninstalled all the fastri gems
other than the 1.8.6.p114 one and the problem persists.

Did you ever figure out what was going on here? I have the same
problem.

Same here.
It does see methods on those classes however.

Yeah (and sorry for not following up).

What you need to do is to generate the Ruby docs with
RDoc from the Ruby source. IIRC, `rdoc -R` worked for me.

You might also want to check out the -Y
option and the rest described in `rdoc -h`. :slight_smile:
