As the project grows, more and more classes can be linked to each other. With your approach, each class would start with a listing of "hard-wired" associations. Imagine 10 classes being able to be linked to each other - what a mess to maintain in each class! Instead, I would like something like this: class Relationship < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :the_one # can be any model has_one :the_other # can be any model end or, even more flexible class Relationship < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :members # a list model of any type end But how to do this with "the magic" of Rails? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
