Hello, I''m facing this problem while trying to extend the parse_redmine_links helper method in Redmine-1.1.0 (Rails-2.3.5) from my plugin. My idea is to use alias_method_chain so the extended version could call the original version and adjust the result to it''s liking. Anything I''ve tried so far exposes this behavior: the first render of a page uses the extended

Hi all, So in the interests of keeping a few areas of my code a bit under control, I''ve been investigating the concept of "concerned_with" as described here: http://paulbarry.com/articles/2008/08/30/concerned-with-skinny-controller-skinny-model Basically allowing me to have: /app/models/user.rb class User < ActiveRecord::Base concerned_with :something end

Hi From what I understand about documentation about require_dependency, this function will work like require but the file will be reloaded on every request to the server when in development mode. I have bootstrapped am minimal RoR project with 0.13.1 Rails. I have created a minimal Controller and hooked up it''s "index" action at the site root. I have also created a

If so, shouldn''t it be documented in the Rails API? Or is there a better way to allow class reloading of my files under lib. I mean, I know about config.autoload_paths, but I want to be explicit about my requires. I just want to be able to reload then on each request when I''m working on them. require_dependency seems to do just that but I''m worried since it is not

I''m completely messed with module reloading in development mode. I have to restart app server each time I edit lib/z/nginx.rb which is included in app/models/user_case.rb app/models/user_case.rb require_dependency ''z/nginx'' class UserCase < ActiveRecord::Base include Z::Nginx unloadable I added to environment.rb

I''m having a problem redefining a method in one of my modules. Lets say I have this module in /lib: module Hello def say_hello "hello" end end And one of my ActiveRecord models mixes it in like: class Item < ActiveRecord::Base include Hello end This works fine, I can call @item.say_hello just fine. But when I try to redefine the method: class Item <

Hi, I am quite new to rails and can''t use any rjs-templates. The problem is, that he can''t use/find the methods in that template e.g. ''page'' or ''replace_html''. I get an error message on these methods. Here''s what I got so far in my example: Controller: ---- class AjaxTestController < ApplicationController layout

I installed the Facebooker plugin and upon placing it on a staging server, I keep running into stack level too deep errors. It seems to stem from Facebooker using alias_method_chain to override some of the ActionController methods. I believe it''s getting loaded twice causing confusion. I''ve tried various methods include wrapping a unless respond_to?(:method) around the

I''m trying to fully understand the subtleties of using alias_method_chain to refine method behavior versus redefining a method and calling super. I have a simple data model (a music collection) that I often use to evaluate web frameworks, and I''m trying to get it working on Rails 1.2.0RC1. Specifically, I have three classes which subclass a common Artist class: - Band

Hi all, I''m having a bit of a problem with unit testing. I''ve simplified my models to try and get my head round it but I''m still struggling. I''m using STI and trying to write tests for the extended models (code below). I''ve written test cases for the extended models which themselves extend the test case for the parent model, so BarTest extends

Hello, I've been trying to make LinkingTo work when the package linked to has c++ code. I've put dumb packages to illustrate this emails here ; http://addictedtor.free.fr/misc/linkingto Package A defines this C++ class: class A { public: A() ; ~A() ; SEXP hello() ; } ; Package B has this function : SEXP say_hello(){ A a ; return a.hello() ; } headers of package A are copied

I''m trying to add some functionality to the setup method of all my tests. I added a method called setup_with_ts in the test_helper and chained it using alias_method_chain :setup, :ts and that works great for every test that does not define setup in the test. So for my unit tests i tried also defining the same method setup_with_ts in a class ActiveSupport::TestCase def setup_with_ts
