Question about the number_to_phone function as provided by rails in actionpack: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/NumberHelper.html If I do this in my controller: num = number_to_phone(params[:phone_number]) I get this error: undefined method `number_to_phone'' for #<TicketsController:0xb7a2bfcc> Whereas if I do this in my view: <%

hi there, How do we share variables in a given data migration? For example, the code below fails to work because "statuses" don''t seem to be in scope for both up and down. class AddDefaultValuesToStatuses < ActiveRecord::Migration statuses = [ { ''details'' => ''details'', }, {

Hello all, while I''m using acts_as_audited(on jruby platform), after vendored the acts_as_audited, it reports some error, line 167, # Start observing the declared classes and their subclasses. def initialize Set.new(observed_classes + observed_subclasses).each { |klass| add_observer! klass } #this line end after some trace shows this one, when observed_classes is empty, will

Hi I''m having problems with using a hash. I put in a class and when I retrieve it, it''s automagically become a string ie <%= button_link _("Export CSV"), SearchParams.get_url_hash({ :action => :export_csv, :klass => Customer }, params, @search_fields) %> Customer is a class that is available to my view def export_csv klass =

Is there any reason why a stub couldn''t both yield and return? I''m looking for a way to mock out a class I''ve made named "AnonymousClass": class AnonymousClass def initialize(&blk) @klass = Class.new @klass.instance_eval(&blk) if block_given? end def new @klass.new end def evaluate(&blk)

Hey all, I have a question with using mocha in my tests. In the same test file, I have two tests, <code> def test_a klass.any_instance.stubs(:method_name).returns("something") klass.new.method_name ... end def test_b ... klass.new.method_name ... end </code> where klass is some class when the tests run, test _a passes, but test_b had an error like this:

We have a custom implementation of the Mother Object idea. It''s inside of a module, basically like this: module Factory %w(account friendship person invitation message asset email_address birth).each do |klass| eval <<-EOF def self.create_#{klass}(attributes = {}) default_attributes = valid_#{klass}_attributes #{klass.camelize}.create!

Dear R developers, Motivated by discussion about checking inheritance of S3 and S4 objects (in head matrix/array topic) I would light to shed some light on a minor gap about that matter in R C API. Currently we are able to check inheritance for S3 class objects from C in a robust way (no allocation, thread safe). This is unfortunately not possible for S4 classes. I would kindly request new

I''ve been developing a series of custom assertions for testing my models and it looks like I can unify most some of the assertions if I can find a good way to determine the class under test at run-time. Now I refactor my test code rather vigorously so its not as simple as just stripping "Test" off the name of the test case class, but I have a few thoughts on a useful convention

Hi all, I have a method calling Klass.create! two times with different arguments (this happens in a class reponsable for reading in a csv file) I want to test those like this: in one test: Klass.should_receive(:create!).with(:name => "foo").once in another: Klass.should_receive(:create!).with(:name => "foo2").once This doesn''t work because the

On a ubuntu linux computer (Feisty, i386), I compile R and additional packages from source. The compiler is gcc 4.1.2. The problem is, I can run "sudo R" and successfully compile all packages (e.g., MASS, lattice) except rggobi. The error seems to be in display.c. My ggobi is in /usr/local/, which R can find. I don't think this is a dependence issue because install.packages(...,

Dear list, I ''m using a text input field with autocompletion . The suggestions come from a ferret index which is created by getting all the terms belonging to other indices. Here is the code: class Suggestion attr_accessor :term def self.index(create) [Person, Project, Orgunit].each{|kl| terms = self.all_terms(kl) terms.each{|term| suggestion =

Hi we wanted to access a class varaible from outside of the same class, like class klass @@var1 end we found out we can not use the class variable like this: klass.var1 we have to create a class function like class klass @@var1 def var1 return @@var1 end end If anyone know how to access a class variable directly without passing by a function??? Thanks you very much

Thank you Luke. That is why I don't use Rf_inherits but INHERITS which does not allocate, provided in the email body. I cannot do similarly for S4 classes, thus asking for some API for that.

Is there a good way to get an arbitrary fixture from the generated fixture function? I need a way to get one of my fixtures, I don''t care which one. It doesn''t need to be random and could always return the same fixture. This is part of a support function for custom assertions and it doesn''t know what class its working on, let alone what fixture names are possible.

Is it possible to access the described class in a shared behavior? I''m trying to do something like this: describe "Siberian feline", :shared => true do described_class_instance_as :feline, :name => "fluffy", :breed => "Siberian" # or maybe before(:all) do @feline = described_class.new(:name => "fluffy", :breed =>

I have found useful to have the table information associated to models disp?ayed in the models and fixtures files of my rails applications. If you want to add this information to the spec_fixtures and specs add the following patch to your plugin.

Hi I run into problem trying to set expectations for the mockobject.class method, I had to undefine a method before I could set some expectation. Is there any better way of doing it? object = mock() .... klass = class <<object; self; end klass.send(:undef_method, "class") # I had to do this because Mocha utilizes "method_missing(symbol, *arguments, &block) "

Hi, I really need help to understand what is happening while Rails connect to a database, (we area actually using postgresql, so my example will be with postgresql) What I understand is Rails is able to connect to different DB. Actually, this is what we want, and we have made some tests, everything is juste fine. However, all these tests lead us to some important questions that we did find the

I found that scoped_access does not re-evaluate the filters on every run. If you are filtering access based on parameters, this can be bad. The scope is set on the first request and then further requests use the last generated scoping. The initial part of ScopedAccess::Filter#before looks like this: @scoping = controller.instance_eval(@scoping.to_s) if @scoping.is_a?(Symbol) This makes
