Coming from the Ruby community and picking IronRuby for developing desktop applications, I have little interest in using .NET-based ORMs, such as Linq. I want to use the ruby data access path that I love from products such as ActiveRecord, DataMapper, and Sequel.
After a long search, I ran into a brick wall, trying to get ActiveRecord to work on IronRuby for any database other than MS SQL. I would really like to use an embedded database such as SQLite, HSQLDB, H2, etc.
Has anyone gotten a Ruby-based ORM running on IronRuby with a built-in database? What was the ORM database? Can you share some tips? Should I learn ORM on Linq or .NET?
