where is the "record" method??? i.e. which is used in generators (e.g. scaffold_generator.rb)

Hi,

Anyone know where the “record” method is defined. Its used in generators like in the scaffold generator. An extract from it is below (taken from scaffold_generator.rb):

def manifest record do |m| # Check for class naming collisions. m.class_collisions controller_class_path, “#{controller_class_name}Controller”, “#{controller_class_name}ControllerTest”, “#{controller_class_name}Helper”

Thanks Greg

Thanks Rimantas,

btw how do you find such methods yourself? I see this is actually private so I guess this is why I didn’t see it in the on-line API. Perhaps checking out the rails code itself and then searching on “def record” is one means?
