what's happened to acts_as_state_machine
John Small
http://github.com/rubyist/aasm/tree/master and to my untrained eye it
appears not to work anymore. At least it doesn't work the same way that
the old acts_as_state_machine worked and there's no explanation for
getting the new stuff running in an AR.
Does anyone know what's going on here? Should I just copy an old version
and use that while they sort out the new version?

What I need to know is how to get the thing working with AR because the
extremely slim example given in the readme just plain does not work.
Does anyone know the ins and outs of getting the new aasm working with
AR?

getting aasm to work. I'm not sure if rest-auth's info is redundant
with other gems but it works for me.
I've used it with Ruby 1.8.[67] and 1.9.1 and Rails 2.[12].2 and
2.3.0.
Check out the README.textile.

I checked out the README.textile for restful_authentication, which
doesn't really say anything about aasm. The generator just generates
code for the old aasm, which doesn't work with the new one.
To save time I've just gone back to the old aasm plugin and it's now
running OK.
If anyone does have a clear set of instructions on how to set up the new
aasm to work with AR I'd love to hear about it.
A clear set of instructions means "instead of writing
acts_as_state_machine you should write ..." and "instead of event use
..." it doesn't mean, "I heard of someone who might have written a blog
article where he mentioned it in passing"

using aasm with AR and any other Ruby class.
Here's very basic example from our User model:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
include AASM
aasm_column :state # I guess it's the only AR specific method here
aasm_initial_state :created
aasm_state :created
aasm_state :pending, :enter => :send_activation_emai
...
aasm_event :register do
transitions :to => :registered, :from => :activated
end
...
end

Ah! The vital bit of information which is always left out of the
instructions. It works now that I've put that line in. Thanks.
It seems to be part of the culture to always leave out a key bit of
information required to get things to work so that people who haven't
written the code have to scrabble around in news groups and blogs to
find the secret.
Thanks

Oops! Sorry John I didn't look closely enough at your post. I thought
you were trying to use the old acts_as_state_machine plugin.
I'm glad to see you got it going though.
