Up until now, I’ve been using TextMate to create my Ruby on Rails code, but I’ve been missing stuff like autocompletion (I know, a bit more difficult when using dynamic languages, but I really miss it because I also do alot of C# development in Visual Studio).
So.. I decided to try out RadRails that is now named Aptana Studio and the Rails development package installed as a plugin.
After the download and the installation I then tried to install the Rails plugin, but got this strange error:
“Requested operation cannot be performed because it would invalidate the current configuration. See details for more information.” and “ Subclipse Mylar Integration (1.0.1) requires plug-in org.eclipse.mylar.tasks.core (0.9.2)”, or later version.”
After some searching I found the answer here. All you have to do is to un-select the Mylar integration. Although this might be a simple operation for experienced users of Aptana Studio, I was a bit puzzled about this. As someone who just wanted to try out the Rails environment (and I guess I’m not the only one), this seemed like an unnecessary complex installation (at the time I didn’t even now what Mylar was - now Mylyn)
