if you are checking AccountSystem.account_system_type in your
controller what is the point of including it in ApplicationController?
If you plan to use it as such, maybe you are better off making it a
Singleton Class.
If you actually want account_system_type to be a class accessor on
ApplicationController you must do something like this:
Module AccountSystem
SINGLE = 1
MULTIPLE = 2
self.included(klass)
klass.send(:cattr_accessor, :account_system_id)
end
end
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
include AccountSystem
# this is how you would use it
def random_method
self.class.account_system_id == AccountSystem::SINGLE
end
end
That should do what you seem to want, but if your goal was something
different let me know and I can try to help.
Of note, if you do use the above solution you could do:
Module AccountSystem
...
def single?
self.class.account_system_id == SINGLE
end
def multiple?
self.class.account_system_id == MULTIPLE
end
...
end
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
include AccountSystem
# this is how you would use it
def random_method
if single?
puts "single"
elsif multiple?
puts "multiple"
else
raise "please set the AccountSystem.acoun_type_id"
end
end
end
