If, for whatever reason, it makes sense to have a HelpersController in your app, now you have a name clash and have to work around it.
IMHO there's nothing wrong with app/helpers per se. If you think the problem is a lack of documentation, that would be the place to improve :) Cheers, -foca On Tue, Dec 18, 2012 at 2:38 PM, Jeff Cohen <cohen.j...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > I know this would break a long-standing tradition, but I really think the > "app/helpers" folder should really by "app/views/helpers". > > I think it helps communicate that any methods in there are intended > primarily for the views to use. > > I'm not sure how big a job it would be to make this change, but I'm ready > to investigate if the core team agrees that this would be something nice > for Rails 4. > > Thanks! > Jeff > > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Core" group. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msg/rubyonrails-core/-/4_e7koIYi3UJ. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-core@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-core+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-core?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
