I''m having a huge memory leak problem with a rails application I''m developing! I first noticed that when running under webrick (via script/server) there was a fast memory leak.. several users using the app for a few hours would use 2 gig of memory!!! I searched the archives and found that some users found that it could be avoided by saying --daemon when launching webrick..

Hi all, I''m having very odd behavior, but only with a few of my specs. I''m checking the value of response.body and in most cases finding it to be the content of the body... but in some cases it''s the name of the template rendered!! There''s no rhyme or reason I can see, but obviously my tests fail for no reason when I expect the body to contain the

Hi all! I''ve been using an instance of my model to do "query by example".. Basically I fill in a new instance of the model and then later interrogate it to generate my conditions for find( :all ).. Where things get ugly is that I just moved several properties into a joined table, but I''d like to keep the ability to set those attributes in the original model..

Hi all, Just looking for a quick sanity check. I was thinking of writing a plugin for rails to give rails developers a good way of using the new firefox 1.5/safari canvas tags. I was thinking of grabbing an existing ruby graphics library and modifying it so that it renders via the canvas tag.. So you could have link_to_remote pointing to controller actions that instead of returning

Hi all, I''m using Goldberg, an engine that provides roles based access control for my app. I need to login before I can do controller tests, but I can''t find any examples of people doing this. Could someone point me in the right direction? I thought the simplest way would be to either call the login action from my other tests before(:all), but I can''t seem to

Hemant, From http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/ "Currently, when a worker is deleted/exits, its result/status is also gone (i.e. you can?t query the status of a worker which is not running). This behaviour is expected to change in future releases." Is this still true? I ask because I am checking for a status after a worker exits and the code seems to work. Thanks Rupert

Hemant, Thank you for your work on backgrounrb. In the old version there was the option of creating workers that do not load the rails framework. Since I was starting these processes as needed I decided to make use of this so they would use less memory. Is there a way to do this in the new version? This is not important to me but just wanted to make sure I was not missing something.

Hi all, I have a table with an associated (has_many) table and a single form to edit the parent that displays the children as well. The associated objects are represented via partials that contain indexed fields like: <%= text_field ''form[]'', ''pages'' %> When there is a validation failure in the "child" form the oddest thing is happening,

Hi all, I''m trying to move a bunch of methods out of a controller into a library that I can include and call a class method to have it dynamically add a bunch of methods to the controller. The goal is to just add to each controller: include UIEnhancements::SubList sub_list ''Note'', ''incomplete'' and have the sub_list method create all the methods

Hi All, Is there any (easy?) way to override column.human_name in ActiveRecord?? Thanks in advance!
