今天把jruby项目打包成war，总结了点经验：

1.如果可以用gem别用 plugin，用plugin容易导致兼容性问题导致打包失败，下面的转帖就是gem和plugin的区别

2.warble complied war可以直接将打包的rb生成class，从而使程序有更好的加密

As a newbie to Rails, "Gem" and "Plugin" terminology was slightly confusing to me. Specifically I saw the terms being used interchangeably sometimes. This TOTD highlights the difference between Ruby Gem and Rails Plugin.

Ruby Gem and Plugin are both packaging systems - the main difference is the scope in which they are effective. The common differences are highlighted in the table below.

Topic	Ruby Gem	Rails Plugin
Definition	A Gem is a packaged Ruby application using the packaging system defined by RubyGems.	A Rails plugin is a packaged Ruby application that extends the core Rails framework.
Example	Has a name (e.g. rake) and a version (e.g. 0.4.16). Rails is also installed as a Gem.	Has a name (e.g. Goldspike) and a version (e.g. 1.1.1).
Scope	Installed in the Ruby or JRuby installation and is available to all applications run using that interpreter.	Installed in a specific Rails app only.
Packaging System	Rails gem is installed in `jruby-1.0//lib//ruby//gems//1.8//gems//rails-1.2.3` as: `<DIR> bin <DIR> builtin 68,465 CHANGELOG <DIR> configs <DIR> dispatches <DIR> doc <DIR> environments 307 fresh_rakefile <DIR> helpers <DIR> html <DIR> lib 1,072 MIT-LICENSE 11,969 Rakefile 8,001 README` The `lib` directory contains all the gem source code.	Goldspike plugin is installed in `vendor//plugins//rails-integration` directory of the application as: `7,089 build.xml 1,141 LICENSE.txt <DIR> plugins 6,675 pom.xml 1,447 README <DIR> samples` `plugins/goldspike` directory consists of `24 init.rb 25 install.rb <DIR> lib 549 Rakefile 536 README <DIR> tasks <DIR> test` The `lib` directory contains all the plugin source code.
Management	Gems are managed on your computer using the `gem` command. You can install, remove and query gem packages using the `gem` command.	Plugins can be installed using after creating a Rails application and then invoking the command `ruby script//plugin install [url or name of plugin]`
Load Path	`gem` command adds the `lib` directory of your gem to the load path of Ruby.	Rails adds the `lib` directory of plugin in your application's load path.
Specific Features		Bundled Rake tasks that get automatically loaded into your Rakefile An installation hook (install.rb) An application initialization hook for the plugin to inject itself (init.rb) ability to bundle additional generators (for the script/generate script)
Publish Format	A Gem may be published as Plugin, for example ActiveRecord-JDBC.	A Plugin cannot be published as Gem.
