Did you follow this discussion on
http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-core/browse_thread/thread/5f17c2a87a122613#320622ec48b0129a
?
Not quite. I was aware that it's there ... but I haven't been able to
really follow it. I'll try to catch up on that.
What's the cause of the failure?
I'm not sure, yet. It might be caused by my own changes to Engines,
some changes from Rails 1.2 to Rails 2.0 RC1 (which I used) or even a
bug in my testcases.
I'm not even totally sure if I really understand how things are
supposed to work here.
Can you give me a recap?
Comments 11 Pascal and 13 James Adam should give you an idea of what's
going on and possible issues with that. Basically, $LOAD_PATH is in
reverse order to give plugins initialized later more weight. The
problem is that if the path to a file is used more than once, the
first one gets totally hidden.
Possible solutions to ensure a plugin loads its code and nothing else
in the load path:
- use absolute paths init.rb to require all the files
require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'lib/filtered_column/
processor')
require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'lib/filtered_column/mixin')
require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'lib/filtered_column/filters/
base')
require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'lib/filtered_column/macros/
base')
- insert your lib in front of everyon in init.rb
$:.unshift(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/lib')
the second solution is easier, but can introduce a whole new set of
loading problems for other plugins since you are changing the load path.
Cheers,
Pascal.
