hi,
i am having problems getting after_initialize for activerecord subclasses. basically, i am trying to use the guid plugin by andy singleton. i am having problems extending the class to the plugins i installed, so i figured i will just apply this to all the models in my project. i trled to add the following to my lib/ folder. my goal is to extended the activerecord class so that it uses guid everywhere. but the after_initialize doesn't seem to be kicking in. i think i m missing a step in the self.included function, but not sure exactly what. i tried to use the AR:validation and other classes as reference, but i couldn't get it to work. any insight into what i am doing wrong is greatly appreciated.
cheers.
=== usesguid.rb ===
require 'uuidtools'
module ActiveRecord module Usesguid def self.included(base) # :nodoc: super base.extend ClassMethods end
module ClassMethods def after_initialize self.id ||= UUID.timestamp_create().to_s.gsub('-','') end end end end
ActiveRecord::Base.class_eval do include ActiveRecord::Usesguid end
