Furthermore, I want to set up a many2many relationship between the mentioned models. the problem is that I do not know how to set the primary key in the categories_products table. this is what I''ve got in my migration file: create_table :categories do |t| t.column :name,

Hi, I am trying to restrict duplicate has_and_belongs_to_many associations. I tried to find support for a association validation for duplicates but couldn''t find anything. I understand I could use :uniq=>true on the model association but this would only prevent it from displaying duplicates, I want to stop duplicate associations being inserted in the first place. I have a vague

I have two tables ("products" and "categories") that have a has_and_belongs_to_many relationship, and I need to be able to arbitrarily sort products in the scope of a category using something like acts_as_list. Problem is, since each product can belong to multiple categories, it doesn''t work to use acts_as_list and have the "position" field be in the

Okay, I download login generator and I used it on my new app but, it''s not working correctly. If the user logins on the same session as he created he will login if it isn''t the same session it fails. What''s going on? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have a question about regarding the use of ''has_one'' in this scenario: Schema: User ---- id first_name last_name UserMessage ---- user_id message_id Message ---- id Assuming business rules dictate that a Message can have at most ONE User (let''s assume a message can be created without a user associated to it), these are my questions: 1) How would I use has_one

Does anyone know how long it will be until Dreamhost get''s the Rails 1.1 install running correctly? My site has been down since last night at about 7:00 pm (I think). It''s annoying, and are a lot of others having this problem too? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there an easy way to make sure that a joiner entry is removed when either part of a habtm is destroyed? I can remove the entry manually but i wondered if there was a option i could specify in the relationship declaration (like :dependent=>true). Thanks, Steve

Hello all, I have an Order object that has and belongs to many Products and has and belongs to many Loan Types. This is so I can select multiples of each in my order entry screen via checkbox groups.

Hi, Posting here since issue tracking isn''t the best place to discuss. I can understand habtm is moving towards deprecating support for extra attributes in join_table, and to use :through for those cases instead. To clarify, patch<http://dev.rubyonrails.org/attachment/ticket/5216/habtm_join_table_test.patch1.diff>for #5216 <http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/5216>

Hello guys. I was able to figure out that my "stack level too deep" error I was getting with my HABTM destroy method was the result of a bug in rails 1.0. I upgraded to 1.1.2 and now the views and any console-run commands for destroying AR objects linked together via HABTM work just fine. I have HABTM setup between stories and submissions. The issue is that the destroy methods in

For a while, I''ve been getting that HMT is replacing HABTM. It appears that HMT can do all of what HABTM can do and more. The question is: Should I stop using HABTM? Let''s take a simple case: A case has many categories For a given category, there are certain valid statuses Category has_and_belongs_to_many :statuses Status has_and_belongs_to_many :categories Question: Is

has anyone managed to do this? It works great for has_one, belongs_to type stuff, but i cant seem to get a HABTM setup going. Any demo code or advice greatly appreciated.

I know this has been rehashed many times, but I don''t get it. I can''t find it documented to were I understand all the parts. I can make this work using Rails database design conventions, but in this case I am not able to do that. I find examples, but the ones I find do not follow the conventions. They also do not give enough information to understand what is going on. In

Hi, I am trying to find a way tp update attributes in a habtm association. I am trying to use the code from ticket #2462, but as my association_class_primary_key_name seems to be empty the generated sql code is corrupt. I hope thats not a problem of my model that this variable is empty. What would you recommend to update those attributes (rails 1.1) THANKS!!! -- Posted via

All, I''ve heard recently about has_many :through as a necessary alternative to HABTM (when the join table has it''s own id column, say, in a legacy schema). However, is the prevailing Rails wisdom now that one should use has_many :through in _all_ cases? If so, why? Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Does the new has_many :through and belongs_to :through obsolete (well, replace and essentially deprecate) has_and_belongs_to_many? Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
