Real beginner question here. I don't really know rake, so I'm stumbling.
As I set a dir to hold my feature files, etc., I'm simply copying the files
structure I see in
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/cucumber-0.1.13/examples/i18n/en/
I know we need a Rake file ME little dir tree, but I don't think I can just
copy the one in the examples tree - or rather, I think I have to alter the
first line:
$:.unshift(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../../../lib')
I don't know if this is bash or some ruby thing I haven't figured out, but
mostly I don't know what to do with the '/../../../lib') part.
That line is there because these examples are in the cucumber
directory tree, and that ensures that the features are run with the
code in that tree (and not an installed cucumber gem). So you should
be able to blow that line away.
HTH,

It looks like
its trying to locate the source dir, but if so, why not just specify +
'lib'...? After staring at it a bit, I have to admit I don't grasp what's
going on.
Can someone clue me in?
It has to find the source dir relative to that file. '/../../../lib'
means to go back up the dir structure three levels and then look for
lib there.

Thanks to all for the generosity of response to my query, which I only
just now noticed.
I did figure out all the details in that "$:" line, when I finally had a
chance to study it.
I did NOT know that the line was optional, though. It's not documented
anywhere that I've seen, although I suppose that to those more
knowledgeable than I that fact may be obvious.
Thanks again!
