I saw from another thread and docs the use of update_table_config,
however It does not work as expected. Given I have the same controller
table nested twice, and I have the following code
before_filter :update_table_config
def update_table_config
active_scaffold_config.label = params
[:parent_column].humanize.titleize unless params[:parent_column].nil?
or not params[:nested]
end
The code runs though three times instead of two ? only overrides one
of the table labels and assigns the label of the other table. It would
be great if the code above was part of the standard AS implementation
and worked ?
It seems that the @label retrieval in _nested.rhtml happen before the
update_table_config filter. This would explain the error above as the
first pass uses the current label, the label override is then set and
used for the second pass using the wrong label.
I have no idea why this is being called three times, and this does not
happen all the time.
Is this a bug and do I need to raise a defect ?
Thanks
