Hello! I have certain methods in my Application Controller, that I need to access. Namely ApplicationController#logged_in_user The problem is, that when I try to access it, I get: NoMethodError: protected method `logged_in_user'' called for #<AdminController> Any ideas how I can circumvent that? Or are functional tests really not suited for any kind of logins and session work? I don''t see why I...

Can you use sessions in layered dispatching? I used them in direct dispatching without any problems, but switching to layered throws an error (saying session doesn''t exist).

Can I make my model methods aware of the context (preferably instance variables) where they are run, without having to pass them arguments? The app in question should be time zone aware, so something like user.events[0].starts_in should check against @logged_in_user.now rather than Time.now. I could send the user as an argument (user.events[0].starts_in(:timezoned => @logged_in_user)), but there are a number of methods where this applies, and it seems more DRY to just read it from the context. I do realize this might not be ideal MVC, so I''m...

Hello! I was wondering, sometimes I raise an exception in my Rails apps, e.g.: raise SecurityError unless @post.user == logged_in_user Now: is there any way to catch that SecurityError exception somewhere and render a custom template? E.g., I want to render ''app/views/content/security_error.rhtml'' Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks a bunch, Rob

Hello. I will appreciate the opinion. What is the standard way of separating admin functions from normal- user functions? before_filter in one controller? Use two controllers, i.e. ProductController and Admin/ ProductController? I want to use map.resources so RESTFul would be better. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to
