I know that usually when people say ''i think i found a bug in rails/ruby'' they''ve done something dumb. I''m wondering if this is the case here, but this does seem like a genuine rails bug to me. In my user model i have a few different before_create callbacks. In one of them, if it happens to return false (just because the last statement in it evaluated to

I''m running into the need (on at least one project now) to implement end-user-customizable "metadata" or properties on model objects. The standard example would be a Person class that had first_name, last_name, etc. but would need to be extended real-time (through the web admin interface) with properties such as phone_number : varchar (30). I''ve done some basic

Hey everyone, I am developing a package and I am wondering if there is a good practice for naming classes, builders, attributes getters and setters when dealing with object composition. I know that it is usually a good practice to give to the builder the same name as the class and, if possible, to avoid to use upper case letters. My problem is that, when I build an object containing an other

I have a virtual attribute ''tags'' , and defined a setter method for it tags=(val). My setter method is not called while creating a Article.

Hi list, first evening of playing with rails, so please forgive me if I ask something stupid. ;-) I created a User model and tried to use ActiveRecord callbacks to convert the password to sha1 just before saving it.

Hi, I have a model similar Basket shown below. If customer_type is set then it should also set customer to nil. Likewise, if I set customer, it should inspect the customer_type attached to the customer and set accordingly within Basket. However implementing it as below doesn''t seem to work. Am I missing a better way to achieve this? I had also considered using a before_save

(This message was originally written on StackOverflow -- the formatting is much prettier there -- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1283046/problem-with-setter-override-on-activerecord) This is not exactly a question, it''s rather a report on how I solved an issue with write_attribute when the attribute is an object, on Rails'' Active Record. I hope this can be useful to others

Hi, I have a AR model that I want to limit changes to be only via instance methods that I''ve added. How do I prevent my other sw from setting the instance''s attributes? I know about #attr_protected and #attr_readonly. But the first leaves the individual setters as they were and the second stops all changes. I want something like "attr_private" Thoughts? Thanks,
