On Monday, June 23rd, the next LLVM social will take place in Paris. Everyone interested in LLVM, clang, Polly, ... is invited to join. !! This time again at IRILL !! This is a casual meeting to get to know people working on LLVM or interested to learn about LLVM. There is no fixed schedule. We just meet to get to know each other and to discuss. No previous knowledge about LLVM is required. We

I have a few forms that I''d like users to fill out. The results of the form will be sent to a few addresses. What''s the least painless way to do this and keep everything DRY? There''s no database involved. Ideally, I''d like to email the form questions with the answers inline. Seems like using ActionMailer and separate email views would be overkill in this

I had to add a check box indicating that a user accepted certain terms to a page. So, I put in a ''validates_acceptance_of :terms'' line into the appropriate model and added a checkbox to my view. Everything works as expected in my web browser. However, my functional tests still pass and I didn''t add or change anything to them. I was expecting to have to add another

I created some scaffolding for an Address model and an Addresses controller. When running the functional tests for the addresses controller, I get this exception: "NameError: uninitialized constant Addres" The exception seems to start from this function: def list @address_pages, @addresses = paginate :address, :per_page => 10 end I''m guessing pluralization bug?

Ok, so now Users need to be associated with Organizations. I''ve created a migration and added a ''organization_id'' column to the users table. I want the default organization_id to be the first Organization. So I have :default => Organization.find(:first). But it''s complaining about not being able to find the constant ''Organization''. Any

Hi, I have a Rails site that uses a before_filter in the application controller that does some authentication and authorization work. I also have a bunch of HTML in folders in the application''s public directory. Before a user can view anything in the public directory, I''d like to authenticate them. How could I do that? I''m using mongrel, if it matters. Thanks, Joe

Is the information in http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/HowtoUploadFiles on caching images still the best way on how to cache images that are served from the database? I haven''t added time information to my image table yet, and the images are sent after every single page view (even if it''s been downloaded already). Joe

I'm in this situation: factorlabels <- c("School", "College", "Beyond") with data for 8 families: education.man <- c(1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2) # Note : no "3" values education.wife <- c(1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2) # 1,2,3 are all present. My goal is to create this table: School College Beyond

All of a sudden, I''m getting this error: 1) Error: test_index(AccountControllerTest): RuntimeError: The number of parameters does not match the number of substitutions. /home/joe/projects/tanga/trunk/config/../vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/assertions.rb:92:in `assert_redirected_to''

So, what''s the status of this project? I''m a little confused. The documentation at http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org seems out of date. It refers to http://svn.devjavu.com/backgroundrb/tags/release-0.2.1, which doesn''t work. All I want is a way to easily set up tasks that should run periodically. Some stuff should run every 10 seconds, some stuff once a day, etc.

Anyone got any tips for running Rails (w/ either webrick or lighttpd/fcgi) on a VPS with a pretty small amount of memory (like 64MB memory and 64MB swap). Thanks, Joe

I have upgraded R (from 3.6 to 4.0) and RStudio (from 1.1 to 1.2.5) a few days ago, and Ubuntu from 18.04 to 20.04 yesterday. Since then, R sometimes never terminates when executing certain commands: ivreg (from package AER), summary (of a logit regression) and logitmfx (from package mfx). Sometimes these commands run fine, but most of the time I have to kill the process because R won't

For a medium-sized website, does one machine for database server (either mysql or postgres) and another for the web server (lighttpd) sound ok? How much traffic could I expect to handle? (I know it depends on the application, but some rough estimates would be nice) Joe

I was writing my blob at http://railsblob.blogspot.com/ which is for new people who are new to Rubby and I was learning if Mongril or Lighthttttp? or Web Rick is better for me. Have you any advice. Thanks? Rails Blobber -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m currently caches_page the show method in my Image controller. The show method looks at @params[''id''] to determine what output should be generated. The first time I access the method, say with http://localhost/public/image/show/1.jpg, the appropriate directories get created in /public (i.e. public/image/show/1.jpg). However, when I try to retrieve

(oops, accidentally sent this to the rspec-devel list, sorry about that) Could someone help me spec out these Rails controller methods? I don''t know where to get started, especially with the transaction stuff. Or, if anyone else could suggest ways I could improve the code, that would be great as well. Puzzle has_one Media. Both are AR model objects. class PuzzlesController <

I'm coming to Paris Dec 19. I was wondering if there was any interest in having an Asterisk get together in Paris sometime near there. Any one out there interested? Anyone in Paris who could help organize something like that? :) Mark

I don''t like this: i = mock(Integer) i.should_receive(:asdfasdf).and_return(''foo'') puts i.asdfasdf Shouldn''t rspec check to see that :asdfasdf is a valid message to be sending Integer? Joe

So, just spent seven straight hours on this. I have a post-commit svn script that runs all my tests. Emails me if something goes wrong. One of the lines looks like: @output = `rake test RAILS_ENV=test` The output from the rspec tests don''t seem to appear in @output. Why would that be? Oddly enough, that only seems to happen when the script is ran from svn''s post-commit

Hi, Is there an easy way of converting a gem to a plugin, or at least something you can dump into $RAILS_ROOT/vendor? I''m uncomfortable having stuff like capistrano, the shipping gem, builder, autotest being installed globally as a gem instead of being installed for each application. What do you think? Joe
