ActionView::PathSet .exists? fails due to nil array
Reported by Mario Olivio Flores | April 30th, 2010 @ 02:52 PM
This method fails: http://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/actionpack/lib/action_vie...
Due to the error evaluating an empty array: "occurred while evaluating nil.empty?"
The empty array is here: http://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/actionpack/lib/action_vie...
seems like "unless prefix.empty?" should be just "unless prefix"

         Mario Olivio Flores June 14th, 2010 @ 02:23 AMYou could submit any value to view_paths.exists?and it will fail.Here is my example. I am using a pages_controller, to manage my static pages. Before attempting to load a template, I want my app to ensure the template exists, using a before filter. class PagesController < ApplicationController unloadable before_filter :ensure_valid def show render :template => current_page end protected def ensure_valid unless view_paths.exists?(current_page) render :nothing => true, :status => 404 and return false end end def current_page "pages/#{params[:id].to_s.downcase}" end end
