Pramod released an updated version 0.1.1 of the JRuby GlassFish v3 gem.

What's New ? - Mainly alignment with Rails convention

The name of the gem is changed from "GlassFish" to "glassfish".
The default port number is 3000.
Applications are deployed at root context ("/"). So the default application is now deployed "http://localhost:3000/home/index" instead of "http://localhost:8080/temp/home/index".

And then there are some other improvements:

The number of concurrent requests can now be set using a command-line argument (instead of "-J-Djruby.runtime"). So 2 Rails instances can be created using the following command:

jruby -S glassfish_rails temp -n 2
Rails instances are created in parallel to improve the startup time of the gem.

How to install it ?

If you installed 0.1.0 version of the gem, then you need to uninstall using the following command:

bin/jruby -S gem uninstall GlassFish
