Apologies first, because I need to ramp up on Ruby and coding Ruby in Rails, however it''s my 3rd day with this beast :) so I''m asking : When I added protected methods to the model before it was like: protected method.................... end Would this be a valid way to write a protected method as well ?: attr_protected :column1, :column2 Perhaps this particular call

So any other ideas as to why my custom class under app/models is being cached even though all the caching is set to false in the config/environments/* files? Currently I''m having to restart WEBrick after EVERY change to the file. The controllers and views are reloading just fine and not being cached. It''s just the custom class I created that''s being cached. Any ideas

If I''m redirecting to a log in page, and saving the controller and action name in the session hash, how do I also save the controller module? After the log in is completed, I can''t redirect back to the originally directed page because it''s in a different controller module. For the controller action name I can use the ActionController instance method controller_name(),

I''m looking at an application that has 30+ lookup tables. By that I mean your typical (id, description, created_on) affairs that contain locations, zip codes, contract types and what not. Things that rarely change, and are maintained by administrators. It''s well known that when you have many lookup tables in the schema, eager loading is not good enough anymore, and you need to

Hey, sorry if this is something better suited to another list. I''ve encountered a strange problem with the RSpec.tmbundle in trunk - namely that it was raising an exception when pressing ctrl-shift-downarrow (switch between spec and source - "Alternate File"). I tracked down the issue to be handling of the file_type in switch_command.rb#content_for() - the code expected the

The problem is: how should I convert DB values (for example with type char(1)) to full string representation. I know that I can add a Hash to a model: IM = {''S'' => ''Skype'',

This is more of a design issue I''m wrestling with, and was wondering what other people are doing. I have a products table with status values of In Stock, Out of Stork or Discontinued. This is unlikely to change any time soon. Approach A, is to have thses actual values in the status column, at least the meaning is very apparent, yet querying for products with a specific status could

Hi all - I''d like to implement a lookup table in my app that contains some reference data, just some status codes and their descriptions. What''s the most appropriate approach according to the "rails way" of doing things? Would I just implement a has_many relationship? Let''s say these are Order status codes, would the StatusCode have many Orders? This

I also optimized some of the code slightly (nothing major, though). The patch also includes two fixes by Geoff Buesing, who has done awesome work in this area in the past.
