What am I missing about this? I have an expression, which looks to me
to be true, but it still evaluates to false. Here''s the code:
def self.get_stars_from_id_array( ids, ruleset_id )
templates = Array.new
ids.each do |i|
star = find( i )
logger.info star.ruleset_id
logger.info ruleset_id
if star.ruleset_id == ruleset_id then
templates.push star
end
end
templates
end
Logger output is
1
1
And yet, star.ruleset_id = ruleset_id always evaluates to false. This
is in my model code. What''s going on here?
Thanks!
Chris

What''s going on here?If one is a string, and the other is an integer, that will evaluate to false; irb(main):001:0> a = "1" => "1" irb(main):002:0> b = 1 => 1 irb(main):003:0> a == b => false irb(main):004:0> a.to_i == b.to_i => true Cheers, Tyler --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

This > is in my model code. What''s going on here?I''m betting that one is a string and one is an integer.
