Module: Authlogic::Session::ActiveRecordTrickery

Included in:
Base
Defined in:
lib/authlogic/session/active_record_trickery.rb

Overview

Authlogic looks like ActiveRecord, sounds like ActiveRecord, but its not ActiveRecord. That’s the goal here. This is useful for the various rails helper methods such as form_for, error_messages_for, or any method that expects an ActiveRecord object. The point is to disguise the object as an ActiveRecord object so we can take advantage of the many ActiveRecord tools.
