Generating new application creates a few syntactically bad files in Rails 3.2.1

Running “rails new yourapplicationname” creates all the requisite files, however two of them have bad syntax.

session_store.rb

is: YourApplicationName::Application.config.session_store :cookie_store, key: ‘_yourapplicationname_session’

should be: YourApplicationName::Application.config.session_store :cookie_store, :key => ‘_yourapplicationname_session’

wrap_parameters.rb

is: wrap_parameters format: [:json]

should be: wrap_parameters :format => [:json]

ruby -v ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [x86_64-darwin10.8.0]

What version of Ruby gained the new JSON-style hash notation? Is that a 1.9.3 feature?

Walter

Ruby 1.9 has this new hash notation (check Google for "ruby 1.9 new hash notation").

For `rails new`, you can ask for the "old" hash notation with

      [--old-style-hash] # Force using old style hash (:foo => 'bar') on Ruby >= 1.9

You might run `rails new -h` to see all options (there are other interesting options there).

HTH,

Peter

It appears to be a 1.9.2 addition.
