Hi everyone, Does Ruby support variable variables like PHP (http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php)? Or do I have to use eval, like some_hash.each_pair{|key, pair| eval "#{key} = #{value}" } Or is there some other way?

Hello everyone, I have another question related to a legacy schema I am working with. Do dynamic finders work with legacy schemas in general? The schema I am working with uses hungarian prefixes for column names. For example fOpen is 0 if a bug is closed and 1 if it is open (type smallint). When I try @bugs = Bug.find_all_by_fOpen(1), I get the following exception: undefined method

to wrap each instance variable of an ActiveRecord object between "<td>" and "</td>", is there a way to "loop through" them, at least in the debug mode, no matter there is getter methods to get them or not, or at least the ones with the getter methods? Such as <% @stories.each do |s| %> <%= "<tr>" %> <% s.each_property

Hello There, As a new comer to RoR, I started to follow the article http://developer.apple.com/tools/developonrailsleopard.html. In short you create to entities and one one-to-many relation linking them. Everything was good until the establishment of the relation. I am unable to go any further than "Linking Models Together" : I can create the "vendors" mentionned in the

Hey All ! I have a form which contains two models. I would like both models to be validated, but have their validations aggregated on the page.
