Rails - Nov 2004 - RDocing model fields

Hi,

  I''m working on documenting my Rails application, and I have problem 
documenting Models. Currently, there''s no way (if i''m not
overlooking
something)  to document Model fields. You can''t use #attr* because that
will
broke Rails internals. I found this workaround, that imo could be merged into 
main code base to make documenting easier:
  * Define a dummy self.field method in ActiveRecord::Base class
  * Add ''-A field=rw'' to rdoc options inside Rakefile

And now you can do:
  class Document < ActiveRecord::Base
    # Document title
    field :title
    ...
  end

It fits very nicely in the way I want to document my code and I hope it will 
for you :)

night. :-)
