What you are describing is "Multiple Table Inheritance". I don't think stock rails handles this. Rails supports "Single Table Inheritance"[1] in which you'll store the union of all column types in the base table.

For STI make a table for the base class and subclass arbitrarily. -- med vänlig hälsning David JH -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
