How can I use Ruby for ASP

Hi!

I’ve been using Python and starting to use Ruby.
I want to use it for ASP pages.
What should I do to use it?
I installed recent version of Ruby and ActiveScript for Ruby.
Still it doesn’t work.

Error:
The scripting language ‘Ruby’ is not found on the server.

Does anyone know how to do it?

Thanks in advance.

Do you really want to use ASP? Will RubyWebDialogs
http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/rubywebdialogs/ do what you need?

Dave, what I want is to make IIS recognize Ruby Scripting Engine.
However, RubyWebDialogs seems to be very interesting.
I’ll check it out.

I’m still looking for a way to use Ruby for ASP.

Thanks.

You can easily set IIS to have Ruby handle .rb or .rb or whatever files:
IIS Management → Web Sites → Properties → Home Directory tab →
Configuration…
Make sure you check the Hit the script engine/Check that file exists
checkboxes.

Apparently ActiveScriptRuby will do what you’re looking for:

Also (instead of that?) there is possibly more than one Ruby / dot NET
bridge you could use to put behind your .aspx pages, if you’re upgrading to
…NET…

Thanks, Dave!

while reading one of the pages you directed me to, I found out what I did
wrong.
<%@Language=RubyScript%> is the right statement.
<%@Language=Ruby%> is not.
Hmmm…

I appreciate your help.

Now I’m reading Ruby book (which comes with the Ruby program) and I am
becoming a big fan of Ruby.
It’s very elegant and as practical as Python.
Actually I worried about its practicability because it’s pure OO.
I’m having some difficulty understanding iterator (yield statement) but will
overcome it…:wink:
