naming for attributes

[fluxsaas]

Hey, i just notices that i have some problems with naming like:

array @shifts do |shift|
  id shift.id
  title shift.shift_category.name
  send("end", shift.ends_at)
end

=> title dies not get displayed at all, well "end" is not working but my workaround does :)

I'm not sure I understand what you are saying. I'll be glad to help but I need some background info first.

• What is your workaround?
• Which version of Ruby are you on?
• Do you have any output from the error you can share?

If I run:

require 'json_builder'

json = JSONBuilder::Compiler.generate do
  @shifts = [{:id => 1, :title => 'test', :ends => Time.now}]
  array @shifts do |shift|
    id shift[:id]
    title shift[:title]
    key :end, shift[:ends]
  end
end

puts json

I will get the expected output:

[{"id": 1, "title": "test", "end": "2012-09-26T23:04:08-07:00"}]

ok, i guess it was too late at night....

  key :end, shift[:ends]

does the trick. i going to check for the "title" key again. not sure why it wasn't working.

thanks for the help!

No problem! Although locally send("end", shift[:ends]) works for me.
