It's been quite a while since I wrote about MagLev 24067 -- we're now
up to MagLev 24407.
Our latest change is replacing the pure Ruby parser with one based on
the Melbourne parser. It not only parses faster, it eliminates a
bootstrapping dependency on MRI 1.8.6, something we've wanted to do
for a while. It passes more RubySpecs than MagLev 24222, so we believe
it's in pretty good shape.
Other enhancements the last month or include updated examples for
Rails 3.0.0, and many changes to the underlying GemStone 3.0 database
technology.
Give it a try and let us know what you think.

For an overview of basic installation instructions see
http://github.com/MagLev/maglev/blob/master/README.rdoc
To install this release using the files from MagLev-installer.zip:
./installMaglev.sh 24407 (only necessary the first time)
or
./upgradeMaglev.sh 24407 (if you've installed MagLev previously)
To install this release by updating a clone of the MagLev github
repository:
git pull
./update.sh
If you leave out the update step, you won't have the corresponding
version of GemStone. Updating using 'git pull' makes downgrading to
an earlier version very difficult. We suggest you save a copy of
your entire MagLev directory first.
To install this release using RVM (
http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/):
rvm install maglev-24407
or
rvm install maglev-head
Warning: this update will install a new MagLev repository. If you
need to preserve the prior version, save a copy of your MagLev
directory before updating.
