I guess that would bring me to my next question. Besides restarting the Rails application itself, is there a way I can load my plugins/ routes/etc. into the application once it's running? My whole dilemma here is to allow Rails to do the same as say, a PHP application like WordPress does, with one-click plugin activation. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
