Finding which fields have been updated after calling update_attributes?

I'd like to know which fields have been updated after an update_attributes statement. I'm filtering the updatable parameters and deleting those that I don't want updated from the `params[:model]`. Now, some of the new updatable params might have the same value as the old one and I'd like to know which param was updated and which one was skipped because same value. Here is some of the code: ``` UPDATABLE_PARAMS = ["param1", "param2", "param3", "param4"] def update @dr = DR.find(params[:id]) authorize! :update, @dr #devise stuff hnew = params[:dr] hnew.delete_if {|k, v| !UPDATABLE_PARAMS.include?(k.to_s) } if @dr.update_attributes(hnew) @dr.update_attribute(:last_updated_by, current_user.email) @dr.touch end render :update_result end ``` Here's the tricky part: I'd like to render the `@dr` object in JSON (but that's already set) and in addition to its standard fields, I'd like to add a nested object that contains the `updated_params`. I could just send `hnew` as `@hnew` to my view, but if I do that I will get all processed params, not just the ones that were different. How can I get the changed params?
