OpenStruct objects can no longer be used in form helpers

Reported by Lars Kuhnt | August 31st, 2010 @ 09:04 AM

Hi,

with rails 3 it is no longer possible to use OpenStruct objects as flexible models in form helpers.

For example:

<%= form_for OpenStruct.new, :url => notifications_path do |f| %>
  <%= f.text_field :message %>
<% end %>

raises the following error:

Model OpenStruct does not respond to message

I always liked the possibility to use OpenStruct objects in form helpers.

Regards
Lars
