Jayp, you have not used jscrubyt, because jscrubyt have not dependencies to RubyInline. May be you install scrubyt from rubyforge and use it in your code, therefore you catch exception.

And one more, all yours problems is in bad installed jruby, not in jscrubyt installation.

Topic: Problems, Suggestions, Bugs and Other Insects / Regexp problems

When I start this script (scrubyt = 0.3.0, ruby=1.8.5):
require ‘scrubyt’

planet_ror_com_data = Scrubyt::Extractor.define do
fetch(“http://www.planetrubyonrails.com/pages/channels”)
link(/.* /, { :type => :regexp })
end

I catch exception, that Regex cannot cast to String in operation =_{~. But in all your posts I have seen some seems things. But when I go to pattern.rb I found this lines in constructor:
if @options[:generalize].nil?
@options[:generalize] = true if parent.nil?
@options[:generalize] = false if filters[ 0 ].example =} /.\[[a-zA-Z].\]$/
end

And those lines throw exception.
