Rails - Jul 2006 - Observer and Plugin conflict...

Hi fellas,

I have setup the acts_as_authenticated plugin and activated the  
UserObserver to send activation emails.

I also have a homemade security plugin which adds methods to  
ActiveRecord::Base like let_read and let_write.

On the server start, those two enter in conflict because the Observer  
does something with the User model but it can''t find the let_read and  
the let_write methods yet. It looks like the plugin is not initiated  
yet.

What can I do ??

AFAIK, plugins are loaded in alphabetical order, if that helps.

Nope, that doesn''t seem to be the trouble (or solution...). My plugin  
is called ''access_protection'' and the other one is  
acts_as_authenticated''.

As a matter of fact, I find it weird that Rails initializes the  
Observers BEFORE the plugins. Can anyone tell me if there''s any way  
to tweak this in the Rails source code ??
