Re: [Rails-devel] Porting 1880 code to 2.0

[Stefan F. <ste...@we...>]

Martin:
one important change (also relates to the issue of the exceptions in the 
toString() method mentioned in a previous mail) in Rails 2.0 is the 
following:

All (Rails)Items use the method toText() for the text to be shown in UI 
display.
The default implementation is to show the id of the object.

toString() usually should not be overwritten, as it is only used for 
debugging in 18xx.log and the default implementation works fine.

This allows to have different text for logging and UI display, which 
made reading the logging sometimes difficult in Rails 1.x.

So if you have overwritten toString() in 1880 specific classes, simply 
change that into overwriting toText() instead both exceptions and 
displayed text should work correctly again.
