Hi All,
I know the answer to this may be simple but I cannot think of it! First
let me explain the problem.
I have the following tables and relations:
log_entries <n..n> users
log_entries <n..1> users
users <n..n> groups
groups < residence1, residence2 (non-normalized by design)
I would like a way to get an array of user id''s (or user objects) from
a
given log entry such that the array contains one element for each user
which is a member of a group which has a residence in common with the
user who created the log entry.
What I currently have is a messy list of code segments such as:
groups = self.user.groups
residences = []
groups.each do { |group|
residences << group.residence1
residences << group.residence2
}
users = []
residences.each do { |residence|
...
}
...
Can anyone please explain the best (or just a better) way of doing this
please. I am falling very much in love with Rails, it is the first
framework I have really got to grips with and have heard lots about its
great community!
Many thanks in advance,
James Adams
