[Rake-devel] How to pass arguments to Rake::Task['name'].invoke ?

[Dominik Mayer]

thanks for your reply! 

sadly this only works for 
  
  ENV['VERSION'] 

but not for 

  ENV['RAILS_ENV']

so if i'm in development-environment, the following would not drop my
test-db (unfortunately it would drop my development-db):

  ENV['RAILS_ENV'] = 'test'
  Rake::Task['db:drop'].invoke

any other ideas on that?
