Q. What am I doing wrong such that tx_batch_mtime is not receiving the
value I believe that I am assigning? At this point current_entry has
not itself been saved.
I have this code:
puts( "*** ***" *3 )
current_log_entry = current_entry.edi_log_entries.build
puts( current_log_entry.class )
puts( hash[:current_batch][:tx_batch_mtime] )
current_log_entry.tx_batch_mtime = \ # linebreak for clarity
hash[:current_batch][:tx_batch_mtime]
puts( current_log_entry.to_yaml )
puts( current_entry.cctn )
puts()
Which produces this output:
*** ****** ****** ***

As you can see, current_edi_log.tx_batch_mtime is nil whereas I expect
it to be 1276181402. Why?

If still not working use ruby-debug to break into the code and inspect data to see what is going on. See Rails Guide on debugging if unsure how to do this. I is often a lot easier than loads of debug o/p.

I discovered the problem. mtime is a datetime attribute in the model and an integer in the hash. So I required Time.at(hash[:current_batch][:tx_batch_mtime]) for the assignment to work. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
