I have an item which has a hash for one of its fields. When i store it in the db, i want to do a Marshal.dump of the hash, and similarly, do a Marshal.load to turn the saved blob back into a hash again. Is there a way to easily write this into the model, so that it happens automatically when saving and loading a record? thanks max -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
