How do you run an ad-hoc query that does not belong in any model? I thought it was something like ActiveRecord::connection.find("my query..."), but I can''t seem to find the documentation on it. I know I''ve seen it somewhere before, though. thanks, Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''d like to do a "find_by_sql" without a model (e.g. <model name>.find_by_sql("...")) as the results I get back are a once off special, and I''m happy to handle them as an array. How do I do this? "ActiveRecord::Base.find_by_sql(...)" does not seem to work? Background - At the moment I''m doing within a model <model_name>,

Does the data for a large send offload have to occupy more than one page? In tuning the windows drivers, if I set the minimum mss multiple before considering offload (a windows variable) to 2, then I seem to get hangs. If I set it to 4 then everything appears to be okay. If the mss is 1460 (normal for Ethernet), then 2 * 1460 = 2920, which will often fit into one page, in which case the ring

I want to use ActiveRecord outside of Rails to do processing on large tables. I want to be able to process the rows as they are retrieved rather than having to store the results in an intermediate array. Any suggestions? Looks like I could hack the adapter to provide an accessor to the underlying DBI handle. Anything cleaner than that?

hi all, a few notes/issues re: building dovecot on OSX. first, after DL of cvs-head, % autogen.sh reports: autogen.sh: line 2: libtoolize: command not found o OSX, 'libtoolize' has been sed'd to glibtoolize. couple of ways to deal with this: (a) edit in autogen.sh aclocal --- libtoolize --force +++ glibtoolize --force automake --add-missing autoheader autoconf (b)

Some time ago there was the suggestion to add a PLATFORM subdir level for bin (and eventually the library subdirs with `binaries'), and the idea to have the shell wrapper automagically call the right binary. I mentioned that one might be able to use the shell variables OSTYPE and HOSTTYPE for that, noticing however that e.g on my Debian Linux/GNU/ix86 bash tcsh OSTYPE Linux linux HOSTTYPE

Does ctrl+c work? My experience with (non klibc) init=/bin/bash is that getting ctrl+c to work requires some jumping through hoops, because running as pid 1 doesn't really work. If I recall correctly you have to call setsid, and open a tty as a controlling tty, you can't call setsid as pid 1. The hack that I got to work (for reference, I'm using this for raw kernel testing

Hi. I read most of the postings here but unfortunately I didin''t found a complete example which could be used. Of cource the ones who are professionals in javascript could implement the missing peaces from the puzzle. What I''m required to do is a tree (sortable list) where items can also be deleted and at each modification a function (ajax) is called to save the changes. For

This dependence is undesirable and logically incorrect. It''s undesirable because Xen network protocol should not depend on a OS-specific constant. It''s incorrect because the ring slots required doesn''t correspond to the number of frags a SKB has (consider compound page frags). This patch removes this dependence by correctly counting the ring slots required.
