I’d like to be able to send a Ruby app to some colleagues without requiring them to install a Ruby interpreter. A single exe would be preferable.
I googled and found ‘RubyScript2Exe’.
What are your experiences with that? Are there other such tools or are there better approaches altogether than building an exe?
I’ve used it about 3 times and I haven’t had any problems with it and I ran one of the apps on 10 servers and never had any issues. So, I think RubyScript2Exe is about as good as it gets for ruby.
