h3. Upgrading to Rails 3.2
-If you're upgrading an existing application, it's a great idea to have good test coverage before going in. You should also first upgrade to Rails 3.1 in case you haven't and make sure your application still runs as expected before attempting to update to Rails 3.2. Then take heed of the following changes:

You should also first upgrade to Rails 3.1 in case you haven't and make sure your application still runs as expected before attempting an update to Rails 3.2. Then take heed of the following changes:
+
+h4. What to update in your apps
+
+* Update your Gemfile to depend on rails = 3.2.0
+* Update your Gemfile to depend on sass-rails ~> 3.2.3
+* Update your Gemfile to depend on coffee-rails ~> 3.2.1
+
+* Start moving any remaining Rails 2.3-style vendor/plugins/==*==. These have been finally deprecated and will be removed in Rails 4.0. Instead, extract your vendor/plugins to their own gems and bundle them in your Gemfile. If you think they're not worthy of being a gem, move them into lib/my_plugin/==*==. You'll also need to add an appropriate initializer in config/initializers/my_plugin.rb.
+
+* There are a couple of new configuration changes you'd want to add in <tt>config/environments/development.rb</tt>:
+
+<ruby>
+# Raise exception on mass assignment protection for Active Record models
+config.active_record.mass_assignment_sanitizer = :strict
+
+# Log the query plan for queries taking more than this (works
+# with SQLite, MySQL, and PostgreSQL)
+config.active_record.auto_explain_threshold_in_seconds = 0.5
+</ruby>
+
+The last configuration from above also needs to be added in <tt>config/environments/test.rb</tt>:
+
+<ruby>
+# Raise exception on mass assignment protection for Active Record models
+config.active_record.mass_assignment_sanitizer = :strict
+</ruby>
h4. Rails 3.2 requires at least Ruby 1.8.7
Rails 3.2 requires Ruby 1.8.7 or higher. Support for all of the previous Ruby versions has been dropped officially and you should upgrade as early as possible. Rails 3.2 is also compatible with Ruby 1.9.2.
-TIP: Note that Ruby 1.8.7 p248 and p249 have marshaling bugs that crash Rails. Ruby Enterprise Edition have these fixed since release 1.8.7-2010.02. On the 1.9 front, Ruby 1.9.1 is not usable because it outright segfaults, so if you want to use 1.9.x, jump on 1.9.2 or 1.9.3 for smooth sailing.
