Point taken.
Nonetheless, in the interim I have tested it and this does indeed work
as expected. However, I used private methods and public getters to
implement.
def valid_location_type
virt_valid_type
end
private
def virt_valid_type
vvt =
[
['MAIN - Main Address', 'MAIN'],
['POST - Postal Delivery', 'POST'],
['DELV - Package Delivery', 'DELV'],
['SHIP - Package Shipping', 'SHIP'],
['OTHR - Other', 'OTHR']
]
end
But my question remains: Is this the preferred idiom or is there
another recommended way to do this?
