Hi, Does anyone know much about abstract_class? Does it actually prevent instances of the class from being created? Does it disable certain methods? I already know what it''s for, but I want to know what setting self.abstract_class=true actually does. The reason I ask is that I want to use it for a slightly unorthodox purpose. I want a class who''s only attributes are its

Hi, i''m a php developer and am used to developing using the zend framework, recently i have discovered the wonders of rails, and have a simple question: In zend in your controller you can make a function called init() which will always run for every action inside that controller, how can i make an initializer function in a rails controller? I''ve searched but havent found much

I have my application happily generating UUID primary keys using the uuidtools gem. But the auto-generated specifications created by "script/generate rspec_scaffold...", etc, assume that one is using a sequential integer primary key.

Hi, I'm a bit confused about what the '--copy-unsafe-links' option considers the 'source tree'. In the man page it says that for links pointing outside the 'source tree' the file will be copied, but when I try this, for all links pointing outside of the local directory the files are copied even though the links point to files that are in the directory tree that is

I am trying to do a simple find through the current_user but get an exception. Either someone spiked my Starbucks coffee and I am screwing up all over the place or there is something wrong. def index @league = current_user.leagues.find(13) end # Error LocalJumpError in Admin/schedule todosController#index no block given If I pass a block to it it works fine, but it is just messy: =====

I''m using Shoulda. After copying the code here.... .... http://joshuaclayton.github.com/code/2009/07/14/should-act-as-list.html.... into my test_helper file so I can test acts_as_list, I came across issues. For one I realized I had to get rid of the _ between the "should" and "have" in past cases, but here, I get this error when I run my unit test:

I''m already successfully testing before_filters in application_controller courtesy of this blog post: http://www.movesonrails.com/articles/2008/01/23/spec-ing-your-application-controller However, i can;''t work out how to test the sort of method that is added to application_controller so that all controllers can use it. It must be something simple that i''m doing

Hey, we''re currently using shoulda (http://dev.thoughtbot.com/ shoulda/) on a project and I saw some things that would be really nice to see in rspec, namely the should_ methods, and especially the should_be_restful method. Do these go against the rspec goals at all? Or could an ambitious programmer go to town implementing these for rspec_on_rails? Nathan Sutton fowlduck at

I''ve almost entirely converted a rails 2.3.5 app to 3pre. I''m having some trouble with protect_from_forgery. I had protect_from_forgery set in application_controller.rb, but run some uploadify ajax stuff in one of my controllers, where I had protect_from_forgery, :except => :add_file set. In rails 3 I''m getting ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken on the ajax

I''d like to display a banner on every page. Ultimately I''ll be tweaking which banner is displayed via different controllers but initially I''d just like to set a single banner application wide and display it in my "_header", a partial I include in all layouts.

I found Spec::Runner::QuietBacktraceTweaker in the RDOCS, but I can''t figure out how to use it. Can I add something to spec_helper.rb that will utilize

Can anyone please advise me what is involved in up grading a project from version 1.2.6 to current (2.3.5). The project is pretty much vanilla code and does not use plugins. Are there scripts that can do the job (or pull out incompatibilities). Any websites or blogs that point the way or should I just bite the bullet and rewrite? Reason for wanting to upgrade is that I now do want to add features
