• Detailed introduction to new features
• Other improvements

Upgrade Method:

Rails1.1 requires support from rake 0.7. Therefore, you must upgrade rake. However, with Gem, the upgrade is effort-free. Execute the following command:

Gem update rake
Gem update rails-y
Gem clean

Remember that gem clean must be done. Otherwise, your machine will coexist with rails1.0 and rails1.1, and even rake will coexist with 0.6x and 0.7, which may cause some inexplicable problems.

Do not forget to execute rake rails: update in your rails project to upgrade the code of the rails project.

Compatibility:The incompatibility between rails1.0 and 1.1 is mainly on plugin. When you use plugin, pay attention to it. for security reasons, it is best to visit the respective sites of plugin to see if all of them have been upgraded by 1.1.

Update 1: If you want to run rails1.1 on Windows, use Ruby 1.8.4. Although it has not been officially released in 1.8.4 one-click-installer, however, RC1 can also be used. Remember to uninstall the old ruby1.8.2 before upgrading. Remember to back up the so file that you have compiled when uninstalling 1.8.2.

Update 2: rails1.1 has more compatibility problems than I think. Now we can see that typo cannot run under 1.1. Earlier dreamhost upgrade to rails also caused 1.0 of applications to die. now we are forced to drop to 1.0. Do people with 37singles only test their own products?
