I''m using template components to modularize an application I''m working on and am really happy with the way it''s going. Unfortunately, all my attempts at writing functional tests for them fail. Trying to duplicate my normal controller tests I have: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require File.dirname(__FILE__) +

I''m trying to run some non-ruby code in my rails app and i''m not sure how to do this. The code i have would take a really long time to port to ruby and so i''d rather run it as is (its php). What i would like to have happen is that the code can be invoked as an ajax call. And just return some data in JSON. I keep running into a routing failure by actioncontroller and

I created a subversion repository on my new vps and i''m trying to setup my rails app there.

Here is the scenario I am trying to achieve. Basically, I want to run the action "show" from my controller, without adding the "show/id". Standard: http://www.domain.com/controllerName/show/id I would like: http://www.domain.com/controllerName/randomstring (where randomstring is a field in my model/table, that is equivalent to a GUID -> and unique). I''m confused

Basically, I''m trying to have a table called "categories" have a many to many relationship with itself. But I also want each catagory to be able to be "copied" into another category so it is essentially a child category to more than one parent. To me the obvious way of doing this is by creating another table called category_maps (and a model called CategoryMap).

Is anybody using 1.2 (or 1.2.1) in a production network using Realtime (voicemail, sip or extensions) with 100+ SIP phones? If so, what are your experiences? We've been running 1.0.3 for about a year and it's been rock-solid. We'd like to upgrade to Realtime and 1.2, but I'm afraid of killing our stability. Obviously, we'd do it in stages (upgrade to 1.2, then realtime

Hello! I''m just starting out with Rails--and Ruby itself for that matter--and have a couple of questions regarding primary_key_prefix_type and non-integer primary keys.

Can anyone supply me with a simple, succinct explanation of what the difference is between the "new" controller and the "create" controller that the scaffold generator produces?

I''m trying to build wxruby-swig on windows with the idea of building a windows installer for it. I think that this would go a long way toward encouraging windows developers to try out wxruby-swig. What do you think? Are we far enough along to contemplate a release? Building wxruby-swig on windows is actually going pretty smoothly, but I want to build it with vc++ 7.1 to match the
