Integrating Existing Ruby Applications with Rails Version 2.3.2
Rails 2.3.2 is available to Deluxe, Premium, Unlimited, and Ultimate Linux accounts. This version of Rails resides in a development Gem path so existing Ruby application functionality will not be affected. To take advantage of this version of Rails, add the following code to your application's config/environment.rb file:
NOTE: To ensure the path is accessed successfully, this line must appear before the call to Rails::Initializer.
This location is where future Rails versions will also reside. To guard against existing applications' compatibility with future Gem versions, you can either freeze Gems or use Ruby's gem
command to specify Gem versions. For more information on the 'gem' command, please see http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/4
For more information about freezing Gems, see What does it mean to freeze Ruby Gems?.
