Hi Gerardo,

Did you see the recent adapter extraction for Rails 2.0?

If you name the Informix adapter gem 'activerecord-informix-adapter' then no extra configuration is needed besides adapter: informix in database.yml

Best, jeremy

Hi Gerardo,

Hey Jeremy,

Did you see the recent adapter extraction for Rails 2.0?

If you name the Informix adapter gem 'activerecord-informix-adapter' then no extra configuration is needed besides adapter: informix in database.yml

Where can I find more information about how these gems should be built

I've got some clues from the source code:

http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/adapters/oracle/Rakefile

Which makes me ask... what should I do to see the Informix adapter (http://rails-informix.rubyforge.org) included in Rails' repository?

You can host it as-is, but I'd be happy to add you to the Rails subversion repository if you'd like.

To transparently work with the new convention, name the gem activerecord-informix-adapter and put the adapter in lib/active_record/connection_adapters/informix_adapter.rb

I would be happy too, please do. It would be easier this way for Informix users to be aware that support exists and to pick up the adapter easily.

To transparently work with the new convention, name the gem activerecord-informix-adapter and put the adapter in lib/active_record/connection_adapters/informix_adapter.rb

Ok, I'll write the Rakefile accordingly and commit the files in the right path.

Thank you very much Jeremy.
