Playing now with Sinatra and shotgun… I guess I just figured out the
hard way shotgun does not work out of the box. I even tried to use
“jruby -J-Djruby.fork.enabled=true -S shotgun” and the latest
jruby-1.6.0RC2.
shotgun sin.rb
warning: -J-Djruby.fork.enabled=true argument ignored (launched in same
VM?)

Is it possible to run shotgun on jruby/windows ? if so, how (please…)
?
If it’s not possible, what are the possible alternatives ?
Thanks in advance.
Please note I’m using/experimenting a ‘special’ environment now: I
actually pack most of my useful gems and jdbc in jar files, and I’m
using jruby-core-1.6.0.RC2.jar, jruby-stdlib-1.6.0.RC2.jar and a few
batch/cmd files. I know this is not a standard way, but I found out
this to be quite efficient on windows. I may document this some time
and share it with the list
