Rails - Mar 2006 - a better way to alias methods

Hi is there a better way to accomplish this task?

class PortfolioController < ProjectController
    layout ''portfolio''



    def boing
        redirect_to :action=>:index
    end




    alias_method :new     , :boing
    alias_method :destroy , :boing
    alias_method :edit    , :boing
    alias_method :update  , :boing
end

My portfolio controller implements view only control of the project
controller therefore I want to prevent the user from poking around for
sensitive methods inside the project controller.
This is my current implementation, but it doesn''t feel very DRY.
Thanks,
Mark

If that''s the only method you want to expose, you could define a route
that always calls that action when that controller is accessed.
