Re: rack 1.2.2 release => Rack::Server.new(:app => app).start

[Jeremy Hinegardner <jeremy@hinegardner.org>]

Hi all,

I too would like to use Rack::Server by passing in an app.
For the moment I'm working around it with:

    server = ::Rack::Server.new( options )
    server.instance_variable_set('@app', options[:app] )
    server.start

enjoy,

-jeremy
