HTTP_STATUS_CODES =

Every standard HTTP code mapped to the appropriate message. These are used so frequently that they are placed directly in Mongrel for easy access rather than Mongrel::Const.

Class Method Details

.Plugin(c) ⇒ Object

This nifty function works with the PluginBase to give you the syntax:

class MyThing < Plugin "/things"
  ...
end

What it does is temporarily sets the PluginBase.category, and then returns PluginBase. Since the next immediate thing Ruby does is use this returned class to create the new class, PluginBase.inherited gets called. PluginBase.inherited then uses the set category, class name, and class to register the plugin in the right way.
