As far as I can tell "numericality" is not a word. Maybe this method should be renamed. -- R. Mark Volkmann Partner, Object Computing, Inc.

Hello, I am building an Rails applications that has to integrate an legacy system (lxoffice) (schema at: http://www.lx-office.org/uploads/media/DB_Schema_2.1.1_R_393_17_03_2005_.pdf). They somehow use global ids (global for some tables). I can not change the schema and still I want to use Rails to access it and not pure SQL. When I try to insert a record I get the following message:

Hi all, Following the recent release of Instiki-AR beta, I haven''t had a lot of bug reports or other feedback. This could mean one of the two things. Either nobody is using it, or some people are, and have no problems at all. One thing for sure is that it''s certainly getting downloaded (20 times a day, as it were)! I''d like to know which way is it. So, if you are

I jumped into RoR @ about 3 AM. I think I''ve got it running, but need a simple sanity check. I''ve been through as many references as possible, but thought that I''d ask the list here for references.

Some of my earlier questions may have hinted ever so slightly in the direction that I''m trying to implement "enumerations". By an enumeration here I mean a class that has a fixed number of immutable instances, which in turn have essentially only a name and a position. Requirements I''ve tried to meet are - Enumeration instances should only be loaded once from the

OK, I''m finally starting to play around with the AWS part of Rails, and I''m running into problems with the functional tests. If I use the generator to create the web service as ./script/generate web_sevice MyTest do_it and then run the unit tests without further editing the code, I get the following error: test_do_it(MyTestControllerApiTest): ArgumentError: illegal

I''m an experienced programmer, but new to Rails. I would like to echo an unanswered question I''ve recently read elsewhere. Can any recommend an overview of get/post, cookies, sessions, etc., and how Ruby on Rails interacts with all of this? I''m interested in understanding how to harden a Rails application Regards -- Dave

Hi, Has anybody tried using the Productize plugin on a recent Rails install? The pages on RubyForge http://rubyforge.org/projects/productize/ seem to indicate the development has sort of stalled, or perhaps it''s stable as can be. Just thought I''d ask for before I give it a go.. Cheers, Jeroen

Hi, Doing connection.pk_and_sequence_for doesn''t return anything when I''m positive I''ve got a PK and sequence on my table on column "id", see DDL below. Is this a bug? ?> Player.primary_key => "id" >> Player.connection.default_sequence_name "players" => "players_id_seq" >>

var v1 = { a: ''value for a'', b:''value for b'' } var v2 = { c: ''value for c'', d: function(){some code...} }; var v3 = v2.merge(v1); I''m getting an error doing this... what is wrong?

Hi, I''ve got a table with an inserted_at column. When I insert a record it automatically injects the current date/time, all is well. Then when I insert a second record, it uses the exact same timestamp that is used in the first record. This behavior only seems to occur in production mode. When I restart the server, the problem goes away but then immidetatly occurs again on the

Hello, First, thanks for releasing Mocha. As someone who''s been practicing TDD much longer than I''ve been using Rails, one of my biggest complaints has always been the fact that the "Unit" tests are more like intefration tests because of how tightly coupled the domain model is when using ActiveRecord. Stubba looks like it could really help aleviate this problem. The

Hi all, I have used the sciptaculous Ajax autocompleter a few times now. A major problem I have at the moment is with a text field that has focus when a page loads. The text field has an autocompleter associated with it, but when the user starts typing, the firefox saved form data autocompleter appears first, and the scriptaculous one is partially hidden behind it. Has anyone else encountered

Dear all, I have a table with a column named "type" and I ''d like to access the type field of the correspondant model object but I get a deprecation warning when I use the following code : modelObject.type "type deprecated use class instead" How can I access such a named field in rails ?

Hi, I''m looking to set up a continuous integration server for a rails application. This application is under source control with darcs. I''ve read about damagecontrol and CIA, and wonder what experience you can share so I can make my mind. CIA seems to work with a post-commit so I should be able to use it with darcs. And as it is in the rails svn repository, I have good hope

Ok, a bit of a possibly dumb question here. When working on Rails apps and I want to add a few custom class rb files to the project, where exactly should I put them? What folder is the best to place them in that things in the model and controller folder can see and use them? Thanks, - Mark -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have a site which is a listing of realestate offerings, written currently in PHP. With complicated .htaccess rules, going to the url site.com/listings/226/aid/29/ref/contact leads to the page listings/prop_view.php?id=226&aid=29&ref=contact... the beauty of this is that the link is SEO friendly and thus gains high rankings in the engines because they will reach it. question is,

I''m looking for a way to select a default value from a select box, like this: select("user", "role_id", Role.find_all.collect {|r| [ r.name, r.id ] }, { :default_value => ''5'' } (of course, there is no ":default_value") If the form is being used on a ''create'' page, it should display a default in the select box. If
