No template for Windows Phone 8.1 in Visual Studio Express 2013 with Update 2 RC

Found it, had to modify my vs2013 installation... (stupid me) Is it an idea to leave this online for the community? (if I forget it again, and cannot find a source online lol!)

attributes_for will return a hash, whereas build will return a non persisted object.

Given the following factory:

FactoryGirl.define do
  factory :user do
    name 'John Doe'
  end
end

Here is the result of build:

FactoryGirl.build :user
=> #<User id: nil, name: "John Doe", created_at: nil, updated_at: nil>

and the result of attributes_for

FactoryGirl.attributes_for :user
=> {:name=>"John Doe"}

I find attributes_for very helpful for my functional test, as I can do things like the following to create a user:

post :create, user: FactoryGirl.attributes_for(:user)

When using build, we would have to manually create a hash of attributes from the user instance and pass it to the post method, such as:

u = FactoryGirl.build :user
post :create, user: u.attributes # This is actually different as it includes all the attributes, in that case updated_at & created_at

I usually use build & create when I directly want objects and not an attributes hash

Let me know if you need more details
