Jetty-rails v0.6 out

Hi all,
JettyRails new version is released! http://jetty-rails.rubyforge.org.

Please note that it is only working with JRuby 1.1.3 or JRuby
1.1.4-SNAPSHOT
from trunk, due to a regression in JRuby 1.1.4 (
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-2959).

It is now fully capable of loading all java classes and jars that you
might
be using in your JRuby on Rails (and JRubyMerb) applications. You can
see
the full change-list here:
http://jetty-rails.rubyforge.org/rdoc/files/History_txt.html

Just a few major steps to 1.0:

  1. load Warbler configuration for classes, jars and custom public
    resources to be loaded. ( may I call it WarblerSpec? :wink: )
  2. load custom web.xml (or web.xml.rb) file for custom Servlets,
    Filters,
    context-params, …
  3. load custom jetty.xml file for jsp, connection pools and jetty-plus
    services (i.e.: jndi, jaas)

As soon as we get support to warble.rb, you will be able to use jruby -S
jetty_rails in development time, with instant feedback (i.e.: no need to
repackage or reload your webapp context after every single change), and
continue to use jruby -S warble to package and deploy.

Happy hacking!
