N.B. This all assumes that you currently connect to the VPN through a VirtualBox Ubuntu machine. If you don't, no problem, but you're gonna have to make it work with whatever your setup is!
IN YOUR VBox VM
1. sudo apt-get install openconnect
2. Make an executable shell script in your home directory:
#!/bin/bash
openconnect -u yourusername_us https://myaccess.oraclevpn.com/
3. Try running it with sudo. Make sure it connects. Tweak until it does.
4. Shut down your VBox VM.

ruby-1.9.3-p484 cumulative performance patch for rbenv

This installs a patched ruby 1.9.3-p484 with the railsexpress patchsets: https://github.com/skaes/rvm-patchsets

Requirements

You will also need a C Compiler. If you're on Linux, you probably already have one or know how to install one. On OS X, you should install XCode, and brew install autoconf using homebrew.

Controller Filters

The Rails REST implementation dictates the default seven actions for your controllers, but frequently we want to share functionality across multiple actions or even across controllers. Controller filters are the easiest way to do that.

Before, After, and Around

There are three types of filters implemented in Rails:

  • a before_filter runs before the controller action
  • an after_filter runs after the controller action
