I went to the ruby on rails source tree and found the diff between
1.1.4 and 1.1.5 (where they started making the security changes). With
that lead I then I went into the gem code to read it in context and
see what it was doing.

So far I find that the code is the quickest way to figure out what
rails is doing, occasionally I will stumble across something in the
mailing lists, however its hit or miss. And the code never lies :-) so
I can always go in there and see exactly what it is doing. I find that
this is extremely valuable.

Yes, there is a rake task to do this from command line

rake -T   will give you a complete list of mv tasks. look for the ones
prefixed with mv:

to do the view rhtml you would do this

rake mv:view_rhtml RHTML=product/_form.rhtml
(substitute product/_form.rhtml with whatever you are wanting to see rhtml for).

Best regards,

Jeff, for rake mv:view_rhtml, only the following worked:
  Any generated file name with the regular path, as in :
    controller/action.rhtml
    layouts/standard.rhtml

None of the partials seemed to work:
    controller/_partial_view.rhtml
    partials/_collection_table.rhtml


Could there be a problem parsing the file path if there is a leading
''_'' in the file name?

Ed,

yes the partials should work just the same, the actual name of the
partial would have an underscore like you indicated so it would be
something like

rake mv:view_rhtml RHTML=controller/_partial_view.rhtml

The name would be the same as what comes out in the list display which is
rake mv:list
(basically the relative path of the rhtml file, including underscore
for partials).
Note that in the render command the partial is not used, but the
actual file name it is added in.
render :partial => ''foo/bar''
uses foo/_bar.rhtml for the filename and that is what you would use to
view_rhtml with
rake mv:view_rhtml RHTML=foo/_bar.rhtml

I''ll double check the code for this, but I do remember testing those
scenarios.

PS. I just about got the fix for rails 1.1.6, but found out that one
of my client''s sites was having problems because of the rails upgrade
(not masterview problem). So I spent the last several days upgrading
and debugging those packages. Joy, joy. But, I am in the home stretch
with that and then I''ll get back to the fix for admin pages. I believe
I have it all coded, just need to test it.
