I do not think I explained my problem clearly. After you read the above post, you maybe think that I can just create another before_filter which is at the very beginning of this process, and just set an instance variable like @app_setting = App.first, and all the following method can use this variable.
But because all the before_filter and after_filter are wrapped to almost all actions in my app, so what I really want is that whether there is something that can persists its value between different request?
