RubyMine - Keyword 'require' shown red, but application works fine

I have a simple Ruby SOAP application:

require 'savon'
client = Savon.client(wsdl: 'https://valid.wsdl.url.here', log: true)
# more code

I am RubyMine and Ruby beginner so, please, forgive me any obvious mistakes. (Although I know IDEA and Java quite well.)

I installed Ruby (using Homebrew on Mac, and RubyInstaller on Windows8) and Savon using gem install savon --version '~> 2.0'.

My issue is that require keyword, as well as Savon class name is shown in red. It looks like unrecognized symbol but mouse hover over require does not show any message. But when I run the application everything seems to be working (as well as debugging). It seems to be RubyMine issue only, on Win8 and OSX. Why is that happening?

Appreciate any help. Thanks.

Solution

  • The dark theme for RubyMine uses red to identify keywords and modules. (I think it might use it for some other stuff but I didn't check.)

    require being in red is perfectly normal. Errors and warnings should either be underlined or highlighted.
