If you just want to use the virtual class as your proxy server for several models, this can help (for 2.3.x, 3.xx you can use ActiveModel for users, as mentioned earlier):
class Registration
attr_accessor :profile, :other_ar_model, :unencrypted_pass, :unencrypted_pass_confirmation, :new_email
attr_accessor :errors
def initialize(*args)
@errors = ActiveRecord::Errors.new(self)
end
def save
profile.save
other_ar_model.save
end
def save!
profile.save!
other_ar_model.save!
end
def new_record?
false
end
def update_attribute
end
include ActiveRecord::Validations
validates_format_of :new_email, :with => /\A([^@\s]+)@((?:[-a-z0-9]+\.)+[a-z]{2,})\Z/i
validates_presence_of :unencrypted_pass
validates_confirmation_of :unencrypted_pass
end
