Rails - Feb 2007 - Please help, does anyone have inherits_from plugin?

Hi,

I''m currently in the early stages of building a rails app that would
greatly benefit from using Class-Table Inheritance instead of STI. I
see there is a plugin to extend activerecord to handle this:

http://www.agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/inherits_from

Unfortunately the URL to the plugin''s repository is broken along with
the home page link too (I have emailed author but not heard back as
yet). I''m on a very tight deadline for this project. Does anyone have
the plugin code installed in a project? Could anyone send it to me?

Thanks,

James.

If you''re using PostgreSQL, you can try my class table inheritance
plugin from
svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/clti/plugins/class_table_inheritance
It doesn''t have inherits_from limitations - inherited column
validation/error
handling and find_by_ on inherited column work. The only inconvenience is that
you must manually set_table_name for inheritance classes. It''s still in
alpha
status because performance was not tested - unit tests are available though and
 all pass.
