That shouldn't ever be your first reaction. First reaction is to refactor out the commonalities. If either, or both models end up as skeletons, then you should rethink your original design... why were they separate in the first place? Lack of analysis. or alot of analysis that you've forgotten that tiny important bit form which led you to separate them in the first place. > > So, in Rails, is there a way to reference the same validation for 2 > different models? > As mentioned previously, plugins, or a parent abstract class depending on the breadth of commonalities. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
