Hello, I have a People table and a Addresses table. A person can have one or more addresses, but should at least have one, so there is a address_id field in People. Now, I would like to have a form to fill the name of a new person and its address from the same place.

Hello, I always have the same kind of design problem, which I am not sure how to solve correctly: - say I have a variable, "status", which I want to calculate once in my controller, and access a couple of times in my view - "status" variable initialization could happen in a subclass, overriding the regular method for that What I do now is using an instance variable

From my understanding, "the fk column should be named after the class of the target table, converted to lowercase, with _id appended". But, in my case, I have 2 fk referencing the same table. How can I do this?

I''m running a rails 2.3.5 / ruby 1.8.7 / postgresql 8.4.2 app and have just run into a curious problem.

We normally use pam/getpwent in dovecot to access our user accounts, via nss_ldap/pam_ldap, but we tried to connect directly to the ldap server, with the very same results. We have one user (out of 100) which just cannot use dovecot with pop3. His

I''m trying to use has_many :through, since my join model deserves being more than just an intersection table. But when I try to break the association, the break only seems "temporary": Let''s say my two tables are Users and Colors, and the join model is Favorites. user = Users.find(1) user.colors.length >> 2 c = user.colors.first >> #<Color:....>

I''m learning rails and I can succesfully use the following things in the controller: @var1 = Var.find :all @var2 = Var2.find :all Problem is that the DB has about 260,000 lines which considerably slows everything down if I load everything in @var1.
