hi i have a Project & Task model.
######## Project model has that additional method: def self.lasttask(project, sort="DESC") Task.find(:first, :conditions=>['project_id = ? ', project.id], :order => "somedate #{sort}" ) end ######## The Task model has one attribute called "specialtask" which is boolean. bewteen Now, i can do this in the console: p=Project.find(1) Project.lasttask(p).specialtask >> TRUE or FALSE meaning its working. But doing it in the view it throws me an error telling me specialtask is unknown. <%= debug Project.lasttask(p).specialtask %> //the debug shows cleary the attribute. so, where is my error here? any pointers are welcome. sidenote: i know i could do this wich "nromal" associations too, but im in the process of learning the innnerworkings of ruby classes (self or not self) thx -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
