Where to put Global variables in Rails 3

Question

I used to put Global variables in environment.rb with my Rails 2.3.8 application such as:

MAX_ALLOWD_ITEMS = 6

It doesn\'t seem to work in

Answer 1

I usually go with application_helper.rb This is what it looks like:

module ApplicationHelper
  def my_global_variable 
    my_global_variable = "Helloworld!"      
  end
end

Then I can put in my_global_variable anywhere as a function.
