Integrating Existing Ruby Applications with Rails Version 2.2.2
Rails 2.2.2 is now available to our Deluxe and Unlimited Hosting accounts running Hosting Configuration 2.0. 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 require_gem command to specify Gem versions.
For more information about freezing Gems, see What does it mean to freeze Ruby Gems?.
For more information about require_gem, see Specifying Gem versions.
