Hi,
In an earlier email about accessing databases with JRuby I asked the
following question about using the regular non-JDBC adapters with JRuby
Rails apps, which did not get answered. Will all regular
classic/native database server adapters work with JRuby or do I need a
certain kind? How do I know which ones work with JRuby. I think I have
all the facts for JDBC access, but I still putting the puzzle together
for non-JDBC access.
In the case of PostgreSQL, you need to download
the postgres-pr gem (are there any other gems that would work?).
What about Oracle, HSQLDB, SQLite3, and Java DB (also known as /Derby/)? What gems can I use for (2)? When
searching for these gems, what are you looking for? For example, how
would I have known that postgres-pr is the gem to use for scenario (2)
for a JRuby Rails app?
