I have the following problem where the view is not able to read a array variable from the model. however my puts staetments thro the controller is able to print the values of the varable. more details below class TorontotraderController < ApplicationController model :config1 def home
@hi="cock a doodledo" con=Config1.new
@filestoShow=con.getDirectories1()
end
Model is def getDirectories1 @torontoTraderBasePath="C:/temp/" Dir.chdir(@torontoTraderBasePath)
return Dir["**{Sc*}"]
end
view is hello
<%= @hi %>
<% for fil in @filestoShow %>
<%= fil %>
<% end %>
when i state puts @filestoShow in my controller, i get the direcoty listing in my rails command window. however my home.rhtml is not able to display any values. if i comment out the @filestoShow in my controller, i can get my test value. how do i make it to work so that i can display my @filestoShow properly from my home.rhtml
