automatically load subdirectories under app/models

Hi    I have found the the below code in environment.rb Here used subdirectories to better organize files

Dependencies.load_paths += [   File.join(RAILS_ROOT, "app/models/Dir1"), File.join(RAILS_ROOT, "app/models/Dir2") ]

What I understood is Rails includes /app/models in the load_path automatically however it does not include subdirectories. Is it right? I would like to know there is a better way on handling that, either by generically loading all subdirectories or by having 1 file in the app/models directory load the files in the subdirectory

Thanks in advance Sijo

This would probably work:

config.load_paths += Dir["#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/**/**"]

Could you please tell here the difference between config.load_paths += Dir[“#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models//”]

models and all subdirectories (even within a subdirectory)

and

config.load_paths += Dir[“#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/**”]

models and subdirectories in models

Best regards
