Re: Adding Tasks to Rake from a Gem?

Two options:

i) In your Rakefile, you need to load the target rake files.
ii) In a Rails app, you could use gemsonrails project to link/freeze the gem into your app, and it will automatically find your Rakefiles. (

Is it possible to add tasks to Rake at runtime from a Gem? Right now I
can include the following in Ruby code to get make the library
available:

require_gem 'activewarehouse'
require 'active_warehouse'

However this will not expose my custom tasks to Rake (they are
currently defined in tasks/*.rake). Any thoughts on how I can cleanly
get my Rake tasks added on the fly? I am currently using Rake 0.7.1.
Thanks for any help on this.
