Ruby sdk can not connect

Hi,

I am new ruby and I am trying to get your example connect code to work. I just copy/pasted the code from here and changed my login info, but when I run I get this error, any ideas what could be causing it? Thanks in advance:

C:/Ruby200-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/splunk-sdk-ruby-0.8.0/lib/splunk-sdk-ruby/context.rb:401:in request_by_url': uninitialized constant Splunk::Context::OpenSSL (NameError) from C:/Ruby200-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/splunk-sdk-ruby-0.8.0/lib/splunk-sdk-ruby/context.rb:314:inrequest'

The first problem is that you're using Ruby 2.0. There were sizable changes to the language from 1.9 to 2.0, and most of the community is still on 1.9, so we haven't ported the SDK to 2.0 yet.

If you're using the Ruby installer for Windows from rubyinstaller.org, then you want the previous version of it that provides Ruby 1.9.3. In our test environments, the SDK runs flawlessly in the Ruby installer's 1.9.3 version.

That did the trick, thanks!

When do think there will be support for ruby 2.0.0?
