*There is no way to do that in rails*. The database I am working with
is not modifiable via the interface (there is no new or create method).
I would use an instance variable (populated by the list method), but
when I call another method referencing this variable, it is no longer
populated:
class SomeController
def list
@array = Some.find(:all)
end
def another_method
[don't bother referring to @array, it is empty]
end
end
Since there are actually a variety of methods here that could have been
responsible for the last @array, I cannot simply repeat the block in
list and hope that @array will be what is it currently is/was when last
applied in a view.
Any suggestions?
