8 days of network disconnection, old news about Ruby

After eight days of returning home during the Spring Festival, I spent almost all of my time drinking, drinking, and having fun with my family, friends, and friends. When I returned to Beijing, I gave me some ruby-related news and paid more attention to the following:

• First, the ruby one-click installer, which has been suspended for nearly a year, released the new version 1.8.4-16 preview1 in lunar January 2, and then updated to preview2 and preview3 soon. The official version should not be waiting for a long time.

• Then markaby came out of version 0.3, which seems to be an improved version of rails built-in builder. It is also a library that uses Ruby syntax to write HTML, however, unlike builder, which focuses mainly on XML tag generation, markaby focuses more on HTML generation. His goal is to replace part of rhtml functions. markaby can be used either as a plug-in of rails or independently. currently, markaby is still evolving.

• Then there is a new Lib Double X release 0.1. This Lib is used to generate HTML, XHTML, and XML. With it, you can easily add to_xml methods to an object. his usage is similar to that of markaby.

• Finally, mongrel HTTP server released 0.2.2. With it, webrick's days are not long !, Here is an evaluation. In fact, mongrel is not very fast, but compared with webrick, it is still an order of magnitude faster.
