Camping can't seem to recognize routes like /things;some_aspect

[mdaines]

Here's a simple app:

Camping.goes :Restish

module Restish::Controllers

  class ThingsCollection < R '/things'
    def get
      "a list of all the things"
    end
  end
  
  class ThingsCollectionSomeAspect < R '/things;some_aspect'
    def get
      "well, it's something different"
    end
  end
  
end

If you ask for /things;some_aspect, you'll just get what you expect for /things. I really haven't done any digging, and though I've been following the feeds, I haven't seen anything. (This is with rev. 177.) All I know is:

"/things;some_aspect" =~ /\/things;some_aspect\/?/

is not nil...

Oh wait...

So PATH_INFO for both those URLs (with the semicolon stuff and without) is "/thing". So is this not Camping's problem?

[why]

Yeah, an alternate syntax for query strings is the semicolon syntax. This semicolon stuff is a new Rails idea or something, is that right?

The relevant Rails changeset. Also: RFC 1738 and RFC 4088.

So we won't use it either
