Updating Controller template to run with Rails 3.2.8

Rails
1

I am referring to a book according to which the “routes.rb” code is as
below:

================= [Code] =====================
MeBay::Application.routes.draw do |map|
map.connect ‘ads/:id’, :controller=>‘ads’, :action=>‘show’
map.connect ‘:controller/:action/:id’
map.connect ‘:controller/:action/:id.:format’
end

When I try to open this route from the browser by typing:

http://localhost:3000/ads/3

I am getting error:

=================================================
RuntimeError

You are using the old router DSL which has been removed in Rails 3.1.
Please check how to update your routes file at:
http://www.engineyard.com/blog/2010/the-lowdown-on-routes-in-rails-3/ or
add the rails_legacy_mapper gem to your Gemfile

What changes are needed?

See link what you get. Section Regular Routes

Use:

match ‘products/:id’, :to => ‘catalog#view’

instead

map.connect ‘ads/:id’, :controller=>‘ads’, :action=>‘show’

Did you check the link given, it looks pretty good to me? Also see
the Rails Guide on Routing, it should sort you out.
