Hi all
When one sends for example a POST request with an XML body Rails parses this into a hash with a corresponding structure. How is this conversion done and where? Which XML library is used? Any pointers on where in the Rails source this is done would be helpful.
Kindest regards
Erik
See http://github.com/rails/rails/tree/v2.2.2/actionpack%2Flib%2Faction_controller%2Frequest.rb#L490
You can override what happens with
ActionController::Base.param_parsers[Mime::Type.lookup ('some_mime_type')] = Proc.new do |data| #turn data into a hash of attributes end

Worked like a charm, thanks.
