Cruisecontrolrb users - May 2007 - Environment issues when using custom rake build task

Hi there,

When using a custom rake_task or when defining the default
''cruise''
task in my Rakefile I get into a peculiar situation. The rake task  
runs in the ''test'' environment which I define for most of the
part,
but not always...

If I have a task that depends on "test:db:prepare" then for some  
weird reason the test:db:prepare" is executed in
''production'' or
whatever environment cruisecontroll is running in. I think I traced  
it down to the fact that at the end "test:db:prepare" depends on the  
default :environment Rake task which reads:

task :environment do
   require(File.join(RAILS_ROOT, ''config'',
''environment''))
end

This is what my custom task looks like

task :cruise => "test:db:prepare"
   # Do whatever here should first invoke test:db:prepare
end

Any ideas what might be the problem?

Cheers!

this is a known bug in cruise, if you grab the latest from head, it should
be fixed.  it will also be fixed in the next release if you''d like to
wait
