Hello all,
I''m trying to directy call validation methods in the controller (for
instance account.validates_format_of ''e-mail'', :with =>
''/^([^@\s]+)@((?:[-a-z0-9]+\.)+[a-z]{2,})$/i'', :within =>
5..199) but it
does not work. It always gives the error "undefined method
`validates_format_of'' ".
I need to do this because I allow the user to add new columns to a model
and I only know it''s type (string, int or date) at runtime.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.
Best regards,
Migrate

Place validates_format_of inside your account model and have your controller pass your validation string to it.

> because I allow the user to add new columns to a modelin 99.9% of cases you should not modify domain model at runtime. .1% reserved for barely realistic approach, I never heard about. would you explain a bit what is the problem you trying to solve that way?
