Rails - Nov 2005 - custom validation in model

Hello,

 is there a way to add a custom validation inside the model ?

like

 validates_passwords_are_equal :password, :password_confirm

 that would make sure the password and password_confirm fields are the same ?

thanks
adam

There''s a validation in the core that does precisely that:
validates_confirmation_of:
http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActiveRecord/Validations/ 
ClassMethods.html#M000653

for custom validations use validates_each:
http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActiveRecord/Validations/ 
ClassMethods.html#M000652
