Hi,

I'm developing an engine with a controller, and I have problems to
configure the routing.
The engine is located in vendor/plugins/web_file_attachment. Under
that directory:
- the controller is in app/controllers/web_file_attachments.rb
- I'm trying  with this controller classes:
class WebFileAttachment::WebFileAttachmentsController < ApplicationController
 and I have tried with equivalent configurations for class
WebFileAttachmentsController < ApplicationController

- in routes.rb, I have this (following the docs stating that the
plugin name is the first part of the controller name):
 connect "/app/web_file_attachments/:action/:id", :controller =>
"web_file_attachment/web_file_attachments"

And in the main rails config/routes.rb I have this:
 map.from_plugin :web_file_attachment

I still end with this error:
uninitialized constant WebFileAttachment::WebFileAttachmentsController

though this is exactly how I name my controller.
If I try
 require 'web_file_attachments'
in init.rb, I get an error with ApplicationController not defined.

What am I doing wrong here?
I'm using rails 2.1.1 and engines 2.0.0

The most obvious things are:

* if your controller is WebFileAttachment::WebFileAttachmentsController, then it should be in a file called vendor/plugins/web_file_attachment/app/controllers/ web_file_attachment/web_file_attachments_controller.rb * if your controller is WebFileAttachmentsController, then it should be in a file called vendor/plugins/web_file_attachment/app/controllers/ web_file_attachments_controller.rb

Essentially - the name of the plugin isn't involved in namespacing the controller, and the file needs to end with _controller.rb. Hopefully that should get you back on track.

Thanks,

James
