Hey folks
I'm trying to track down the source of some weirdness with a namespaced controller. I'm using Rick's RESTful Authentication plugin. In this plugin you can override two methods to customize how to ascertain authorized users and how to react to unauthorized users. This is via a mixin residing in your lib directory, which is usually included in ApplicationController.
Suppose you have a controller like...
class Admin::UsersController < ApplicationController
before_filter :login_required
protected
def authorized? # Called first by login_required. admin? # Let's pretend we fail right here end
# This _should_ be called as a result of authorized? failing. It's never called! # Instead, the original method in the mixin is called! def access_denied redirect_to some_sensible_url end end
(Pastie'd here if the above is garbled: Parked at Loopia)
As noted in the comments, I'm finding the access_denied method defined in the mixin is being called instead of that in my controller ONLY when I run "rake test:functionals", not when I run individual tests.
Have I lost my mind, or is some weird name-spacing stuff happening?
