All good stuff, and let me add one thing, based on my experience with an app that's primarily developed on MRI/MySQL and deployed on a JRuby/Oracle platform -- write tests like there's no tomorrow :-) You will almost certainly find cases where the adapters for those two respective DBs behave differently; good tests will help you determine whether it's an adapter bug or a logic bug in your app. HTH, and good luck, -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ [email protected] twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
