how do i invoke the irb during the execution of my code.
for eg
require "watir"
ie = Watir::IE.start( url)
invoke irb so that i can inspect the ie and use the ie object
interactively.

Appreciate any help.

ruby-breakpoint, while currently unmaintained, does (did?) just that.

IRB is very useful for that. One way to do it:

First, run "gem install -r ruby-debug"

I have the following programmed into a hotkey in my text editor:

require 'ruby-debug'
Debugger.start
debugger

...so whenever I need a breakpoint I hit the key and rerun my program.

Copy the module..end and class..end part into your code. Then look at
the stuff at the bottom. The simplest use is:

IRB.start_session(x)

where x is the object that will be "self" in the irb session. If you
want the user to be able to look at some local variables as well, use
the form with "binding" as the first argument.

Have you seen/tried Live_Console?
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=4682&releas...
I'm trying it out on a project.
I'm having some issues, but that's par 4 me.
