It’s an assign method.
def movie_file
#code
end
The above is used to GET the movie file
def movie_file=(x)
#code
end
The above is used to SET the movie file
I’ll simplify a little, but suppose you don’t have a field movie_file in your model (i.e. database table), you can use this method to pretend it’s there. You then handle it with the variable “x” so that it does something useful.
