What's new in Aptana RadRails 1.2?

Easier to get Rails set up and configured (especially on Windows).
Since setting up Rails can be confusing to new users (and time consuming even for the most experienced), so we’ve added a wizard that helps you get standard Ruby installed as well as RubyGems. For Windows users, the wizard will even get and run the Standard Ruby One-Click installer for Windows for you.

Streamlined Rails app deployment and updates via Aptana Cloud Connect.
Pick a Rails project, then choose Deploy to a New Site, Deploy to Staging, or Deploy to Public. Then RadRails and Aptana Cloud Connect do the rest for you. RadRails 1.2 automates setting up all the integration points, installs the necessary gems, and executes the proper deployment commands for you. And as always shows you in the console all the commands so that you can do them manually or use them in your scripts.

Preparing for Eclipse 3.4 compatibility.
The release also lays some plumbing that will be useful as we move towards using Eclipse 3.4 as the platform for future releases. This primarily means that some debugging functionality that only worked in Studio 1.2 (based on Eclipse 3.2) will now work in Eclipse 3.3+ and in the next major release of Studio when that comes out.
