I created model named "whats_new".
$ script/generate model whats_new
exists app/models/
exists test/unit/
exists test/fixtures/
create app/models/whats_new.rb
create test/unit/whats_new_test.rb
create test/fixtures/whats_news.yml
exists db/migrate
create db/migrate/*****_create_whats_news.rb
-----
rake db:migrate
WhatsNew.find()
WhatsNew.new
There are no problem.
However,
test/unit/whats_new_test.rb
-----------------
whats_news(:data1)
-----------------
=> "No class attached to find."
-----------------------------------------------
class Fixtures
...
...
def initialize
...
@class_name = class_name ||
(ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize_table_names ?
@table_name.singularize.camelize : @table_name.camelize)
p @class_name
...
end
end
-----------------------------------------------
=> "WhatsNews"
A true class name is "WhatsNew".
@table_name == "whats_news"
>> "whats_news".singularize.camelize
=> "WhatsNews">> "whats_new".pluralize.singularize
=> "whats_news"
By the way, I cannot speak English...

A single news item is still called ''news'' not ''new''. Two choices for you.. - Add your own inflection so that ''news'' is singularlized to ''news''. - Change your class name. -philip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Controller actions are verbs. In your case of WhatsNew is practically a complete sentence. "What is new?" Maybe use something like NewsItem or simply News, which rails will properly pluralize as "News." In this case the table name will be news. Then to find out, "What is new?" you can create a named_scope that gets recent new items like this: @recent_news_items = NewsItem.recent or @recent_news_items = News.recent -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

In your case of WhatsNew is practically a complete sentence.Correction: Controller actions aren''t necessarily verbs. It might be more accurate to say the handles what to do with the request and the verb is part of the request (i.e. "GET index" would get then index of news items and "POST create" would create new news items). -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Thank you for everybody. I change the class name. Robert Walker wrote:> @recent_news_items = NewsItem.recent > > or > > @recent_news_items = News.recentIt did not hit on in me. "What is new?" is in "News". P.S. I added rails/lib/rails_generator/generators/components/model/ model_generator.rb to p ''warning: class_name'' unless class_name =class_name.pluralize.singularize --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
