Can't require gem in IRB console using jruby

I'm using jRuby at the moment (version 1.6.5) on my local machine.

rvm use jruby

If I do a

which cucumber

I get /Users/sebastiano/.rvm/gems/jruby-1.6.5.1/bin/cucumber

but when I open up the Ruby console (irb) and I try requiring 'cucumber'

require 'cucumber'

I get:

LoadError: no such file to load -- cucumber

Any clue on that? I can see the gem installed in '/Users/sebastiano/.rvm/gems/jruby-1.6.5.1/gems'

Solution

  • Actually I got it. I had to do require 'rubygems' as the first instruction.
