Building app that is also a gem - recursively adds gem! #34

Open bil-bas opened 11 years ago

bil-bas commented 11 years ago

If the app is also a gem (gemfile calls #gemfile), then there is a circular dependency and things get messy.

Thanks to jlnr for reporting!

I just ran in to this problem myself trying to make a package of the Cloud Foundry CLI gem. Any movement on this/ how can I help?

Sorry, I am mainly working in Python at the moment, so I've not done any work here in a good while. I'm sure the recursive gem issue is conquerable; I just didn't address it myself. If you want to fork and send pull requests, that would be fine.

Really, this project needs a decent overhaul, but I just don't have the time or energy to do it any time soon (e.g. support for Ruby 2.0 (Well, I assume it works except for the OSX wrapper and no x64 support), using a newer OSX wrapper, auto-download of wrappers when needed, using a better test framework (e.g. rspec)).
