You can get by "reusing" a class name, but it's a PITA. I had a model named Filter, then upgraded Rails at one point, and all sorts of ugly conflicts occurred since the new version of Rails included a Filter clas.
One solution is to reference the class to the local namespace, such as in the controller: @filters = ::Filter.find(blah blah blah) While it can be done, I wouldn't ever do it again. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
