I''m seeing a handful of gem bugs on rails3 that are going unresolved
because the fix breaks the gem on rails2.
What is the preferred way to add rails version conditions to a gem?
Is checking the Rails::VERSION::STRING what folks should be doing?
if Rails::VERSION::STRING.start_with?("3")
do rails 3 stuff
else
do what u were doing
end
Seems like that would break something once Rails 4 comes out. ;-)
Pointers to best practices appreciated. Thanks

yeah that works better. :-) How other gems are handling this. It looks like acts_as_ferret is only supporting Rails3 in > 0.5 so no need for version checks there (unfortunately it isn''t quite rails 3 ready yet).
