= Rake 0.9.1 Released
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rake version 0.9.1 has a number of bug fixes and enhancments (see
|
||
|
below for more details). Additionally, the internals have be slightly
|
||
|
restructured and improved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Changes
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rake 0.9.1 adds back the global DSL methods, but with deprecation
|
||
|
messages. This allows Rake 0.9.1 to be used with older rakefiles with
|
||
|
warning messages.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== What is Rake
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rake is a build tool similar to the make program in many ways. But
|
||
|
instead of cryptic make recipes, Rake uses standard Ruby code to
|
||
|
declare tasks and dependencies. You have the full power of a modern
|
||
|
scripting language built right into your build tool.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Availability
|
||
|
|
||
|
The easiest way to get and install rake is via RubyGems ...
|
||
|
|
||
|
gem install rake (you may need root/admin privileges)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Otherwise, you can get it from the more traditional places:
|
||
|

Also, bit thanks to Eric Hodel for assisting with getting this release
|
||
|
out the door (where "assisting" includes, but is not by any means
|
||
|
limited to, "pushing" me to get it done).
