class CIJoe
  class Server < Sinatra::Base
    [...]
    def self.project_path=(project_path)
      # next line does something screwy
      user, pass = Config.cijoe(project_path).user.to_s, Config.cijoe(project_path).pass.to_s
      if user != '' && pass != ''
        use Rack::Auth::Basic do |username, password|
          [ username, password ] == [ user, pass ]
        end
        puts "Using HTTP basic auth"
      end
      set :project_path, Proc.new{project_path}
    end
    [...]
  end
end

the above is called from:

class CIJoe
class Config
[...]
def initialize(command, project_path = nil, parent = nil)
@command = command
@parent = parent
@project_path = project_path || File.join(File.dirname(FILE), '../../')
end
[...]
end
end
