VAoColumn

Allow validates_acceptance_of to store value on a database column of the same name.

An example use case here, is that you want to use the current version of the EULA as the :accept value, and store that column, so you can refer to the explicit version the user accepted at a later date.

Example

ActiveRecord::Schema.define do create_table :pirates, :force => true do |t| t.column :catchphrase, :string end end

class Pirate < ActiveRecord::Base validates_acceptance_of(:catchphrase, :accept => "Argh!") end

"catchphrase" is a normal column method on the model, not just a virtual accessor.
