Uninitialized constant w/ ActiveResource

Howdy,

I had an application perfect for ActiveResource, which I do realize is not finished.

Anyway, I froze my app to edge and then defined a class:

class Address < ActiveResource::Base   self.site = "http://ws.geonames.org/findNearestAddress?lat=:lat&lng=:long&quot; End

I tried to use it from the console but I get the trace below.

It appears it can't 'see' ActiveResource.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Hunter

active resource isn't a part of rails right now, so you'll have to specifically require it in environment.rb.

Thanks.

I tried that by doing this:

config.load_paths += %W( #{RAILS_ROOT}/vendor/rails/activeresource/lib )

I am still getting the same error after restarting the server.

Is there another way to require it? I got this method from Gooooogle.
