I have a problem, please check the code Fields = Array.new Fields [0] = "sno" Fields [1] = "username" Fields [2] = "designation" Fields [3] = "salary" Fields [4] = "dob" Fields [5] = "email" Fields [6] = "doj" These are the fields of the object ''Employee'' The Employees array contains of the set of employee objects... I need to have the array of hashes as [{employee_record1},{employee_record2}...... n records] For this i tried as the... result = [] for employee in Employees res = {} for field in fields res << { field => employee.send(field)} end result << res end But it is not working... Finally i have to replace the ''result'' with the PDF::SimpleTable.data through the statement => table.data.replace result which accepts only the hashes... whose columns are the keys and the column data as values Please Help me Thank You --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hi - see below... hema gonaboina wrote: ...> I need to have the array of hashes as > [{employee_record1},{employee_record2}...... n records] > > For this i tried as the... > > > result = [] > > for employee in Employees > res = {} > for field in fieldsYou used ''Fields'' above instead of ''fields'' here.> res << { field => employee.send(field)}res[field] = employee.send(field) ''res'' is a hash. You build it by setting key/value pairs not pushing onto a sequential array. That should probably do it. Some other things that might be of interest: employee.attributes will give you a hash of all the fields and their values for an employee object but you might only be wanting a subset. (You could ''delete'' them.) Employee.column_names will give you an array of all the column names.> end > result << res > end > But it is not working... > > Finally i have to replace the ''result'' with the PDF::SimpleTable.data > through the statement > > => table.data.replace result > > which accepts only the hashes... whose columns are the keys and the column > data as values > > > Please Help me Thank You-- Daniel Bush --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
