Rails - Nov 2006 - url_for problems

This is in the production version, 1.16, NOT in the 1.2RC.

I''m having severe problems generating more than one URL per request.
For
example,

@url = url_for(''action'' =>
''accept_invitation'', ''conf'' => conf)
@block_url = url_for(''action'' =>
''block_email'', ''conf'' => em)

(where "conf" is a Base64-encoded string)

If I call the first one first, the second one throws an exception of the
general form:

Exception: undefined method `rewrite'' for
"http://localhost:3000/accept_invite/bW9hdEBmbG9hdC5jb20%3D":String
/opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.5/lib/action_controller/base.rb:488:in
`url_for''
/Users/al/Development/RyanKoonce/WheresYourDollar/public/../config/../app/controllers/members_controller.rb:354:in
`block_email_url''

Yes, the string which has the "undefined method
''rewrite''" is the first
URL I generated.

If I switch the order and call the second one first, both work. Once.

But if I''m generating a number of URLs, the next call to either one
throws the same exception.

The only workaround I''ve found is using something like...

@url = "http://" + request.host_with_port +
"/accept_invite/" + conf

...which sucks:-)

Is there some kind of magic incantation I''m missing to
"reset" url_for?

  ^^^^

As it turns out, the name @url is used in ActionController::Base.

After I overwrote it with a string, it didn''t work any more:-)

I plan to remember this next time I''m writing code that will be used, 
subclassed, included, or otherwise accessed by other people. Sort of 
like the days of writing C libraries: DON''T use common names for 
accessible variables in library code.

@action_controller_url might have been a better choice.
