Instead of just upcasing them, can we add prefix ARCH_? --Venkatraman On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 2:36 AM, Eric Christopher<echristo at apple.com> wrote: > > On Aug 25, 2009, at 12:32 AM, Daniel Dunbar wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I think I should rename the constants to be a little less likely to >> collide.

Hey all, I have two models in my rails project that share a lot of traits. They each have the same 4 properties, and now I need to add 2-3 methods to each one that will be the same. In the spirit of DRY I am looking for a solution to write these methods only once. Both of these models already inherit from ActiveRecord . . . and I didn''t know if it was safe to just "whip up" a

Hi, I''d like to upcase a variable before it is saved, but I''m not sure how to access the incoming param or where this work should be performed: In my update method, I have: @device = Device.find(params[:id]) params[:device[macaddress]].upcase <-- problem code if @device.update_attributes(params[:device]) ....usual stuff here ''macaddress'' is the

I''m testing ruby-head through rvm but can''t get ''ação''.mb_chars.upcase == ''AÇÃO''... I get ''AçãO'' instead... This happens both for Rails 2.3.5 and Rails 3 beta 3... How can I get upcase to work correctly? Thanks in advance, Rodrigo. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby

I would prefer not to; they already live in a protected namespace, so there is no need to mangle them except to protect them from exuberant preprocessor defines, and this would be slightly out of style with other public uses of enumerations in LLVM. - Daniel On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 7:49 AM, Venkatraman Govindaraju<venkatra at cs.wisc.edu> wrote: > Instead of just upcasing them, can we

Hi- Say I am returning some collection of DateTime items and I only want to compare the month. Is there a way to do this directly in the find?

Hi, Does anyone know a way to override .blank? method that rails provides. I want to add additional custom checks (specific to my application) to this method. Thanks, Pratik

Greetings. I have a route something like this: map.calendar ''/tasks/:year/:month'', :controller => ''tasks'', :action => ''calendar'', :year => /\d{4}/, :month => /\d{2}/ (Ignore the obvious problems of invalid data.) I''m trying to create a form that will allow my users to navigate from one month/year to the next.

Hi, I think I should rename the constants to be a little less likely to collide. I think just upcasing them might be good enough? - Daniel On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 12:20 AM, Duncan Sands<baldrick at free.fr> wrote: > Hi Venkatraman, > >>  The current version in SVN fails to compile in sparc machines since >> gcc defines "sparc" as a macro in sparc machines that

to wrap each instance variable of an ActiveRecord object between "<td>" and "</td>", is there a way to "loop through" them, at least in the debug mode, no matter there is getter methods to get them or not, or at least the ones with the getter methods? Such as <% @stories.each do |s| %> <%= "<tr>" %> <% s.each_property

Hello all! I have a conundrum that I''m _sure_ someone else has already thought of and solved. How does one best handle the scenario of association object changes and data integrity? For example, if I have a standard ecommerce site that sells Products and people can have Orders and an Order has_many Products... then, what happens if Product #3 is part of Order #2 but at some point, the

Hi, I''d like to make a demo version of my app available, but I''m not ready to get into database stuff, yet. Has anyone ever deployed with sqlite (what I used to develop my app)?

Hi all - I need to do an overlay with something that supports ajax/remote html. There''s lots of options and quite a few rails plugins. Some seem out of date however. Any suggestions on which one is "best" where "best" is defined as easy to implement, works in all browsers, supports ajax or remote html. Thanks! -philip

Hi all! In my app I want to detect what country a visitor is viewing from by their IP. Although it''s by no means perfect, the simplest option I''ve found is by using this site: http://api.hostip.info/ by passing the ip address as a query, this site returns an xml file with the country as one of the tags. http://api.hostip.info/?ip=6.255.255.255 returns (amongst other things)

Hi all, This is my first post to the forum, and I''ll point out right away that I''m a noob to everything, Ruby, Rails, MySQL, etc., so I expect that I''m wrong here, but is the ''year'' datatype missing from ActiveRecord in 2.0.2? According to my MySQL 5.0 reference manual, ''year'' is a datatype, but when I try to run a migration that has
