[news.eclipse.technology.dltk] Re: Debugger not working on JRuby (Ganyme

[Alex Panchenko <alex@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Steve,

There are some incompatible changes in the JRuby 1.1.x preventing the 
DLTK ruby built-in debugger to operate.

We filed the following bugs in the Eclipse and Codehaus bugtrackers:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=238078
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-2693

Thanks for reporting this.

Regards,
Alex
