Facebooker talk - Mar 2008 - facebook_url_rewriter not used in Publisher?

As per my last email, I''m generating links to our app outside of
Facebook.
 Sorry for the onslaught of emails on this.  I do link generation in
Publisher based code as well.  What I''m finding is that the Facebooker
UrlRewriter doesn''t get used in Publisher.  This makes sense if we
assume
that Publisher can be used outside of an HTTP request, and things like the
UrlRewriter use the HTTP request.  Yet, link_to, and url_for and such are
there (probably sucked in via pulling in various other helpers and such).
 So, I wanted to find out the intent there.  Link creation seems like
something many folks would want to do when publishing into to a profile or
to the feeds, etc.  Maybe it''s just not working for me, or I''m
off on use or
something?

I should note that I''ve tried both with using things like link_to or
url_for, as well as using named routes, and also from within my Publisher
class'' code, as well as the view template.

This may be a rails 1.2 issue, as it works fine for me on rails 2.0.

Can you share some code and some additional detail about what happens  
when you try to run it?

Well, I suspected that :)  Last night I started a spike on getting up to
date on Rails.  This is involved for us since we currently use Appable
Plugins, and I need to convert to Desert in order to even move to Rails
1.2.4 or later, so I''m working on that.  I''ve got rake, db,
and unit tests
working, now to get functionals and RSpec stuff going.  Heh, then I can
start updating Rails :)  Ok, nobody cares about that, but that''s where
I am.

As for the problem, it usually complains about missing
"default_url_options".  So, it actually finds link_to and url_for and
such,
but within the guts of all that, default_url_options comes up missing.  I
haven''t had a chance to dig into that yet.

You might try defining "default_url_options" in your publisher. It  
should take a single optional hash parameter and return a hash.
