i have a controller like this:
class SpoilageController < DataEntryController
before_filter { check_access_key(’_SP’) }
…
and in the parent class is this:
class DataEntryController < ApplicationController
def check_access_key(key)
if !@session[:user].admin &&
!@session[:user].data_entry_access.to_s.upcase.include?(key)
render :text=>‘You dont have access to this function’,
:layout=>true
false # disallow
end
end
…
But it crashes, with this error:
undefined method `check_access_key’ for SpoilageController:Class
Why can’t the spoilage class see the function in its parent class?
whats going on?
