Hey, sorry if this is something better suited to another list. I''ve encountered a strange problem with the RSpec.tmbundle in trunk - namely that it was raising an exception when pressing ctrl-shift-downarrow (switch between spec and source - "Alternate File"). I tracked down the issue to be handling of the file_type in switch_command.rb#content_for() - the code expected the

I''m trying to produce a plugin to help me with my page caching woes. I can''t seem to get rails to see my method within the plugin.

I then created an init.rb file with: require ''broom_stick'' I then

Hi all - I''d like to implement a lookup table in my app that contains some reference data, just some status codes and their descriptions. What''s the most appropriate approach according to the "rails way" of doing things? Would I just implement a has_many relationship? Let''s say these are Order status codes, would the StatusCode have many Orders? This

All, I have a controller action that will do a different "render (:action)" call depending on whether or not data is valid. When the data is invalid - I set a flash element to hold a message. However, when I post back to this controller action and have valid data, I still have the flash element set, which I don''t want. I believe this is because I did a render from the

So I have if (condition) render() else ..other code end ....other code in method Should I expect the render to take place immediately or does the render call not work because it isn''t the last statement in the method?

I also optimized some of the code slightly (nothing major, though). The patch also includes two fixes by Geoff Buesing, who has done awesome work in this area in the past.

I am aware that controllers can be placed in modules: ruby script/generate controller modulename/controllername But what does this buy me? Is it just a way of ensuring that my source code is nicely arranged, or can I use the fact that a set of controllers are all within a particular model to implement functionality common to all of those controllers? Why am I asking? The app

I wanted to group some functions which I use in some models in one place. Controllers have application.rb and views have helpers but I couldn''t find anything about models. Using the /lib directory seemed to be the only way. Alright... so I have something like this: /lib/code.rb class ActiveRecord::Base def method_a(n) ....... end def method_b(n) ........ end end

All, This is really starting to get me as i can''t figure out why I am getting this error. Here is what is going on. I have a table called items and a item controller.
