Very strange problem with application.rb and login_generator

Hi,

I''m working on a very simple project, and I need to add
authentification (I choose login_generator). So, i''ve added the
required things in application.rb, the require_dependency and the
include stuff. In the controller which requires auth, I''ve added
before_filter :login_required. Exactly what they say in the
documentation.

The problem is that I get "undefined method `login_required'' for
#<DrugsController:0x11345ec>".

If I define a function named "test" in application.rb and if I call it
from drugs_controller.rb, I get the same message.

Tell me if I''m wrong, but the controllers normally inherits from
ApplicationController defined in application.rb, no ? Why the
functions are not accessible even if they are protected or public ?

Btw, i''m using Rails 2.0.1.

Thanks in advance

Alexis ROBERT

This is just a guess, but did you put the login_required method after
the ''end'' line of the controller class? If so, move it up :-)

Re: Very strange problem with application.rb and login_generator

Hmm ... no :)

That''s the code :

-- drugs_controller.rb --
class DrugsController < ApplicationController
  layout "standard"
  before_filter :login_required

  [snip]
end

-- application.rb --
require_dependency "login_system"

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  include LoginSystem
  helper :all # include all helpers, all the time

  [protect_from_forgery stuff]
end

Re: Very strange problem with application.rb and login_generator

LoginSystem is old and possibly not maintained any more. I think it''s
been
superseded by AuthenticatedSystem (acts_as_authenticated) and the methods
used in both modules are very similar. I recommend upgrading to
acts_as_authenticated

Re: Very strange problem with application.rb and login_generator

Thanks a lot !

But, by the way, the main problem is still here (and so, if i want to  
put authentification, i need to copy/paste the include line, which is  
not very clean :) ) :

For example, this code raises an "undefined method `blah'' for  
#<DrugsController:0x17d60bc>" :

-- drugs_controller.rb --
class DrugsController < ApplicationController
   def index
     self.blah()
   end
end

-- application.rb --
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
   helper :all # include all helpers, all the time

   def blah
     return 2
   end
end

If I put "print self.blah" before self.blah(), i get a
"nil". So the
method is not inherited (even if i put it protected). I don''t  
understand how can it could be (unless that the  
"ApplicationController" in drugs_controller.rb is not the same as the
application.rb''s one, but that''s pretty weird).
