Perhaps someone can share some insight: I''m modeling a simple English-Japanese dictionary. Phase 1 is simple. There are Entries, but I need to keep in mind that verbs, nouns, adjectives all conjugate differently. I need some place for that logic code in the future. Entry: t.string ''type'', ''english'', ''japanese'' So I chose single table inheritance. It gives a model for each word type and I can put the methods needed for future tools, quizzes, etc. there. However, alot of trouble follows. I have to handle the entry type and instantiate the proper class in the create method. doable. But now all of simply_helpful looks at my object and wants to render things like ''noun_url'' instead of ''entry_url''. I don''t feel that I need to map every word type in the routes. I only need one controller. Thoughts? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
