Hi Mahmoud, Thanks for the info but the problem here is that my model does not have any validations declared because they depend on the workflow that the user sets.
For instance, the user can set that in the Step 1 of the Workflow he wants to validate that a given attribute is greater than 300. To do this I need to call directly the validates_numericality_of class method: Step.validates_numericality_of(:attribute, :greater_than => 300) Best regards, Hugo Mahmoud Said wrote: > I believe you are not thinking in the proper use of validations. > > What you want to do is: > > s = Step.new > ... > > s.valid? > s.errors.on(*attribute_to_be_validated*) #returns nil for a valid > value. or > the error message in case the validation was not met > > > > On Fri, Mar 26, 2010 at 2:36 AM, Hugo Mag <[email protected]> wrote: > >> def Wrk < ActiveRecord::Base >> Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. >> >> > > > -- > Mahmoud Said > Software Engineer - eSpace > blog.modsaid.com -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
