I have one table(profiles) where each row has many rows in another table(carriers). If I write profile.carriers I get a collection containing all carriers that belong to the current profile.

Every now and then when I am working on making the SQL Server adapter pass all the ActiveRecord tests, I notice one that looks like a false positive in the core DBs. Here is one case in relations_test.rb. Can someone look at this and just tell me it is normal for other DBs and just odd for SQL Server? Or maybe it is just my understand of some SQL standard.

Hello, I have a question regarding the use of Mocha with rSpec to spec one of my methods. My spec contains the following vehical1 = mock() vehical2 = mock() vehical1.stubs(:mph).returns(150) vehical2.stubs(:mph).returns(250) comparer.add_vehical([@vehical1, @vehical2]) comparer.sort_by(:mph) The comparer is an object that has a basic "stack like" functionality, add_vehical is the
