Question

I try to add another directory to the paths that Rails is looking to find views, and I found a working solution in the ActionController :: Base.prepend_view_path and ActionController :: Base.append_view_path methods, but both of them are marked as deprecated in Rails 3.

ActionController::Base.append/prepend_view_paths are deprecated since they were extracted from the AbstractController module. If you call these methods from your controller, the AbstractController methods will be called, not the deprecated ActionController .
