I''m wondering what the accepted method for doing unit tests on STI models is. I tried to create a fixture for the class but Rails tries to load that data into the non-existent child table. I could create a fixture named for the real, parent table, but then it would be very difficult to test for the individual functionality and integrity of each sub-class. I saw this page

I''m trying to decide which IDE to go with for RoR development. I put a high premium on integrated test automated tools and debugging capabilities. I''d appreciate any sharing of experience. I''m currently running Instant Rails on a Windows 2000 box (using IR due to problems I encountered trying to get all the components set up individually). Also, I''m using

----------------------------------------------------- Announcing: jEdit Snippets for Ruby on Rails ----------------------------------------------------- I thought I''d "give a little back to the community" and whip up some SuperAbbrev files for ruby and rhtml that mimic all of the Textmate Rails bundle snippets.

Hi everyone, I''m a rails & ruby nuby, and this is my first post to the list. Here''s my environment in case it helps diagnose my problem: Ruby version 1.8.4 (powerpc-darwin8.6.0) RubyGems version 0.8.11 Rails version 1.1.2 Active Record version 1.14.2 Action Pack version 1.12.1 Action Web Service version 1.1.2 Action Mailer version 1.2.1 Active Support version 1.3.1 I did

Hello RoRsters'', I''ve just started my first project with ROR, and frankly it''s pretty amazing, there are many things that still haven''t "clicked" for me yet but essentially it''s all coming together. My first project is a basic blog application to replace a current Moveable Type based blog. I''ve managed to get the basic functionality

I''m considering rolling my own rails-based blog, but want to take a look at what''s available first. Here''s what I know about: Typo http://typosphere.org/ Simplelog http://simplelog.net/ Mephisto http://weblog.techno-weenie.net/2006/6/12/mephisto-out-in-the-wild Am I missing anything?? Thanks, -TJ

Is there a deep link still active to download Typo while http://typo.leetsoft.com/ moves to its new home? Thanks, Zack -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/attachments/20060206/9034c40f/attachment.html

I''ve written my own blog (I know typo is better, but I wanted the experience of writing my own) and I want to add syntax highlighting to it. I''ve read about using the ruby gem syntax but I can''t figure out how to implement it. I''ve also wondered if it could be used in my case. How does it work when you have a long line of code but the <div> your

I do apologize for asking this question here, but it seemed like the appropriate place: I keep trying to move from jEdit to RadRails for my ruby/rails development but there are a few things holding me back. I''m wondering if anybody could tell me whether these features are truly missing, or if I''m just missing how to make them work. Firstly, it doesn''t truly auto

I''m working on a simple photo gallery app for personal use and I want to generalize the sidebar such that in any page (controller or view, I''m not sure which) I can dynamically add either 1. links to a given sidebar 2. or an entire sidebar. I know that typo does this, and I''ve looked the code. I think it''s too complex a solution for my simple site.

I''m about to start work on sidebars for my app, but I''ve heard a number of people express doubts about them as the way to go (they are slow & apparently DHH regretted coming up with them components). What other solutions are people using for this type of need (i.e.needing to call an action/view combo from within a view)?

Hi All, A few of us got together and started an official LLVM (and its sub-projects) blog: http://blog.llvm.org/ I think that a blog is a potentially great way to cover some areas of LLVM that we're lacking in the community: 1. A place to describe cool new features and enhancements (which we can link to from the release notes). 2. Description of the motivation behind major API changes. 3.

Hello all, I''m looking for suggestions for integrated Blog + Wiki (Bliki) apps. I''d prefer Rails, I want to hear opinions on all options! I''ve browsed through W:Bliki <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bliki>. Nothing in that list is immediately compelling. This is for my wife, who is not a technologist, and has a need to create a information-centric website.

Hi, this is my first post to the list. I''m still learning the rails framework, having done most of my previous web development in PHP. I''ve done a bit of googling for the answer to this question, but maybe I''m just lacking the right word to search for. Several parts of my site, such as sidebar components, are self-contained, modularized and re-used in several parts

My code is something like this. class FirstController < ApplicationController def foo #some processing render (:controller => ''second'', :action => ''index'') end end I tried using both render and redirect but it seems it''s not possible to send the control from within a controller to some other controller. Am I missing something

Hi Torok, I've used a hard-coded list on the input parameter and still got some output (slightly) scrambled between two different bots...

Hello - new RoR developer here need some help from you experts. I am writing a custom sidebar for typo (to extract events from my google calendar) and have hit upon a problem that I can''t resolve. I want to use strptime to create a date object but when I hit that line of code the method is bombing without giving me any error messages to the console or the development.log file. Any

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey all, First of all, hello again! Been a while since I've posted to the list, but I've been here lurking and watching ;-) Anyway, I wanted to pose a general question to the list to see if it turns up new suggestions for everyone/me. What is your preferred editor when coding in the dialplan? This is mainly aimed at those of you who write

They weren''t as far as I know. But maybe they should be soon. It looks like the Today Show (a morning show on NBC in the US) is doing a "Live for Today" segment, basically the same thing that 43 Things is doing. Maybe someone from Robot Coop should let them know about 43 Things. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7225307/ -Lee
