I have class in a plugin that I want to crack open and add some
functionality to for a particular application. So, I created a file by
the same name as the class in my app/models folder and added some
methods to the class, but, I can't seem to get Rails (2.2.2) to pick-up
the extended definition.
I did find while trying to debug the problem that if I paste the
extended definition into, say, environment.rb it works fine. Also, if I
require_dependency "#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/my_class.rb" in the
plugin's version of the class it also works fine (obviously not
desirable).
All of this leads me to believe that my problem has something to do with
the class loader, but, I can't figure it out. I've laid out an example
below that illustrates my problem. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason

end
# app/models/my_class.rb
module Jason

def another_method
# ...
end
end
end
$ script/console

NoMethodError: undefined method `another_method' for
