How to secure web services created by ActionWebService?
Hi, Does anyone know how I can go about securing web services created from ActionWebService? The manual from rubyonrails.org (http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/book/10) doesn''t say anything at all on this ... or do I have to implement my own access control? -- Sau Sheong http://www.saush.com http://read.saush.com http://jaccal.sourceforge.net -------------- next part

Best place for generic utility classes?
I have some code that is simply formatting and parsing URLs and I really don''t want to associate it with a view or a controller or a model - I just want it to be available as a utility class. Where should this utility class go? I would have to import it into my controller using "require" correct? Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Documenting web services API''s
Sorry to have to post this again - it was probably under the wrong subject and went unnoticed. Is there a standard for providing user documentation for methods that I expose through we services? The default documentation (method names and return types) that appears when the user visits http://localhost:3000/backend/invoke is concise and correct, but a bit terse. How can I give my users a little

I''d like to implement a system in a Rails app where I allow the user to upload an image file, and then the app takes that image and manipulates it, saving a thumbnail, small, and original size version of the file to the server. How would I go about doing that? Thanks, Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Oracle and MySql simultaneously from rails app
I searched this site on Oracle && MySql, nothing came up, so perhaps this is a new topic for this forum. I''d like to access two databases from the same application simultaneously (well, more precisely, in rapid succession, calling one first and then the other, as any "joins" will be done in the application code). One database is in MySql, the other is Oracle.

graphing solutions
Hi all, This might be OT. Wondering what are available charting solutions that work well with Ruby on Rails. I''ve seen reference to a few but they all seem to rely on integration with a program written in another language (requiring a seperate process per chart), Perl''s GD module for instance. Is there a 100% Ruby charting library that is freely available? Thanks, Dave
