I have some classes in my model which use STI and they work as expected in the console. However, when I try to use them in a migration, I get "uninitialized constant OfficePhone", for example. Why doesn''t the migration environment pick up the class defs? OfficePhone is defined in the model/phone.rb. I put model :phone in the application.rb but my migration just

Greetings! I''m attempting to use the act_as_versioned plugin to provide versioning functionality for my rails app, but can''t think my way through this: How can you use act_as_versioned to perform versioning on a HABTM join table? It is easy to see how to do so for join models (:has_many :through) but not so for the join table. I want to use act_as_versioned to maintain

Hello there, So I''m still struggling with this fastcgi stuff. I''m trying to upload and process a decent sized ZIP file, but the request dies before it finishes and I get the following error: FastCGI: comm with (dynamic) server "/Users/ryan/Workspace/rails/photos/public/dispatch.fcgi" aborted: (first read) idle timeout (30 sec), referer: http://photos/album/new/4

Ok, So I followed the directions.. I did a ''gem install markaby'' (which sounds like its enough to get me going for rails), but I wasn''t sure, so I tried to install the plugin as well. Plugin installation fails looking for a file: Script/plugin install http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/svn/markaby/trunk Outputs this error: + ./trunk/svnindex.xsl

Recently discovered Markaby. Before I use it on a production system, I''d like to know if it is still being maintained? According to the change log, the last change was in February of 2006. Does this mean that the project has been abandoned? Or, at version 0.3 it was considered production stable and complete? -- Best Regards, -Larry "Work, work, work...there is no satisfactory

Hi everyone, I recently began using libspeex 1.2 Beta 1 on Windows using MS Visual C++. I have gotten a decoder and an encoder to work fine from the excellent sample code posted at the website.

Hi All, Just a quick note to say that I''ve released an intial version of the request routing plugin which essentially allows you to use various request object properties as requirements in routes. Most notably you can do: map.connect "thing", :controller => ''main'', :requirements => { :subdomain => ''whatever'' } ..just like the wiki

I am working on an application where there are many different screens to access the data in a particular record/row. I have links to each data entry screen at the top. Is there a way to detect whether the current hash has been changed from the stored record so I can prompt the user if they attempt to change screens without having saved their changes to the data?

Hi, Could anyone point to some TextMate resources ? I found a few bundles, but they were all corrupted... JEtienne -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am putting up a tool that connects to a subversion repository and checks latest revision and downloads the changeset log for all the changes made since last check and puts inside a hash for various uses inside the code. I am just wondering if the code that checks the subversion repo and reads it''s data should bolong to a controller of it''s own or a model of it''s own.

Can someone please tell me the best approach to adding support for editing MySQL decimal types in rails? I have a field in the DB that represents currency, and the view will not let save anything past the decimal place so, 10.99 becomes 10.00 automatically.

I''m playing around with this plugin and I wanted to use REST in edge for it. Mostly because it''s there. ;) I''m actually having problems with how to make the map.resource for it though. The controllers name is Tumbleror and the models name is TumblerorPost. How do I actually make the map.resource command for that so it''s makeing a resource at the url /tumbleror.

Hey list, RSpec is great, I''ve been using it at work for a couple of months now. One gripe I have is that I find it hard to know exactly to what extent my code is covered by the specs. I am aware of RCov and Heckle; they''re great, but I''d like to demonstrate another perspective of coverage analysis I''ve hacked up. The perspective is that of what is mocked and
