I often use script/console to interact with models.

It would be nice if script/console acted like WEBrick when it comes to  
reloading classes that get updated. Anyway to do this?

Short of this, is there a way to tell script/console to reload a class  
manually? My current solution is to exit and restart script/console.

Hi,

I wish to know if it is possible to update more than  
one “

” with a single call of ajax?

I try the example in agile web development with rails,  
but can’t make it work.

does some one know how to do this???

thanks you very much

Saiho

Dispatcher.reset\_application!

Wow!

Great tip!

I wouldn’t have asked, because I’d assume it was too audacious  
to imply that such a thing _might_ be possible!

I’m sure glad the OP asked… 🙂

Dude… you already posted this, and got replies. Then, you sent a  
“test”  
message to the list. WTF ?  
Get a GMail account, archive Rails posts, and be happy 🙂
