I tried to follow the UsingTheJRubyDebugger instructions on the jruby wiki. (kenai.com/projects/jruby/pages/UsingTheJRubyDebugger). I got an error trying to install the ruby-debug-ide gem.
jruby -S gem install –ignore-dependencies ruby-debug-ide
JRuby limited openssl loaded. gem install jruby-openssl for full support.

Building native extensions. This could take a while…
rake aborted!
Don’t know how to build task ‘2>&1’
(See full trace by running task with –trace)
ERROR: Error installing ruby-debug-ide:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
I’m using Vista. Has anybody gotten this to work? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

JRuby does not support native extensions. A related stackoverflow question is here.
Second try:
