Hi I am trying to create a plug-in to fix the error in the rails core produced by the multiple delete on a HABTM relationship. I have confirmed that my plug-in is being included into the base during runtime however the code does not seem to be overridding the base class. module ActiveRecord module Associations module ClassMethods def has_and_belongs_to_many(association_id, options =

Hi converted two of my models to HABTM today but I am having a real hard time getting my unit tests to pass now. Specifically, when I destroy a record I get this error: ...many many lines of this above... (eval):4:in `destroy_without_habtm_shim_for_categories'' (eval):4:in `destroy_without_habtm_shim_for_categories'' (eval):4:in

I am having a problem with two models that each have a HABTM relationship to the other. For example: CREATE TABLE people (id INT, name TEXT); CREATE TABLE teams (id INT, name TEXT); CREATE TABLE people_teams (person_id INT, team_id INT); The person model has: has_and_belongs_to_many :teams And the team model has: has_and_belongs_to_many :people The trouble comes when trying to destroy

For a project that I am working on I need to have a family tree. This means that instead of having one parent each item has at most two. As far as I know acts_as_tree only allows one parent_id. Any suggestions on how to make a "acts_as_family_tree" ? Thanks, Mark -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- I am Mark Daggett and I approve this message.

Hi All, I am making a DAM (seems to be the hip thing to do these days). It is for the company that I work for. We have some really weird domain rules that have prevented me from just using a simple directory structure file permission system. I have come up with a solution but I wanted to run it by you gurus to ensure that I am not recompiling the wheel here. Basically the domain rule is: A user

I have a mysql database that I am trying to use migrations on. The problem that I am having is that when I create a blob field in my migration file like so: t.column "data", :binary, :limit => 15.megabytes, :null => false rails changes it to this in the schema: t.column "data", :binary, :default => "", :null => false not only is this not what I wanted

Am i a total idiot to try and parse out a rails object for javascript in this way? <% for i in interface_items[0].attributes %> var <%= i[0] %> = "<%=h( i[1] )%>" <% end %> Am I missing something really obvious?

I am trying to create a model that allows only unique assets to be added to a category. However, they could be added again to a different category. Finally, an asset can be shared across many categories. So my question is how do you check the uniqueness across a join table? This does not compile.... has_and_belongs_to_many :categories, :foreign_key => ''asset_id''

i am making a category tree and i iterate over the category using my counter_cache however it would show a different number than what was actually being represetned in the tree. Here is an example cat.children = [cat2, cat3] puts cat.children.size 2 puts cat.children_count 2 cat4.parent_id = cat.id cat4.save puts cat.children.size

I have two objects that are associated in the following way: class Class1 < ApplicationController has_and_belongs_to_many :class2s has_and_belongs_to_many :otherClasses end class Class2 < ApplicationController has_and_belongs_to_many :class1s has_and_bleongs_to_many :otherClasses end Now, when I run the following query, @objects = Class1.find(:all, :conditions

Is there such a thing that I could use to store sessions in the DB instead of in a cookie so that I can ensure users will be able to access their session data even across several load balancers? We use totally stateless machines here at work and I am worried about deploying a rails app in production that uses a volitile session stored on the machine. Any help is great! Happy Holidays, Mark --

Hi I know there is no real requirements tag but I was unsure what to label this message, please don''t flame me :-). I am using the Javascript Integration Kit with Macromedia Flash to make a local connection to the rendered Rails view.

I am working on a very large Digital Asset Manager for a Los Angeles Based Fashion Company. The application is about 60% done.

Hi all, I am trying to use migrate on my application and works great except for the blob elements in my schema. MYSQL wants me to declare LARGEBLOB for images the size I need to store but unfortunatly migrate seems to just declare :binary as plain ol'' blobs. I like the idea of a database agnostic database description but I''d like to find away to specify the size of the blob

I am building a flash-based uploader for rails that allows multiple files to be selected from a user''s hard drive and then put into a queue for upload. This works great except that macromedia uploads everything as "application/octet-stream". This means that displaying the newly uploaded content inline is a pain because the browser asks to download it first. To get around this I

Hi, I usually stay away from issues like this, basically because I'm not a lawyer (and don't want to be one), and I don't have a real interest in these issues.
