On another computer, install a higher Rails version, such as 1.4, change the RAILS_GEM_VERSION in environment.rb, and run rake rails:update. Then run all your tests (you do _have_ tests, right?), and commit your code if they pass. Then repeat for, say Rails 1.6. Keep walking the version up. At any time, if the tests fail, rock back to the previous baselined version, and then make whatever changes are needed so the tests would pass in the higher version. Then integrate (meaning pass all tests), and then try the next version again. You can keep going like that until you hit 2.1. Oh, and certain plugins will die, as their authors abandoned them. You can cover that by removing the plugins and commenting-out whatever features they provided. Then rebuild them. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
