First, I like your way of checking the constants. Being dense, I did that manually when I had to - thanks much! Now, something is DEFINITELY wrong. Here is the result of my run: irb(main):001:0>c = Object.constants ---whole bunch of constants displayed --- irb(main):002:0> require 'pg' => true irb(main):003:0> Object.constants - c => [] What in heaven's name could cause this? ---Michael -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
