Using Rubygems

Because Ruby-Processing uses a JARed copy of JRuby it will only look for Gems that came installed in that JAR.
To use other gems the most secure way is to:-
- System install JRuby.
- Install the ruby-processing using the installed jruby (
sudoprefix may be required)jruby -S gem install ruby-processing-2.1.0.gem - Install all the gems you want use with jruby or ruby-processing the same way
jruby -S gem install some_gem(where some gem is a remote rubygem gem)
When running the sketch use the local version of JRuby, to be sure that you can access the installed gems...
See samples/external_library/ruby_gem
An alternative way of using regular installed rubygems is to set the GEM_HOME environmental variable but this may not work..
