I am testing against 4.2.4. It definitely will not work with the 3.x line. About the extra argument...check that you have the newest Ruby bindings. The ones on the Frontbase site are *not* the newest. I had to modify them to work with ActiveRecord. I sent my changes back to them but they haven't posted them yet. I have the source to the modified bindings checked in at: svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/frontbase-rails/trunk/ruby-frontbase I added an extra argument to allow naming the database session, so it sounds like you are running the old 0.5.2 bindings. Once I get the adapter code checked in, I'll look into releasing a gem of it to make things simpler. As of right now (revision 4241) it is passing the tests cleanly: 859 tests, 2866 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors > On a side note, there is a bit of foo != nil or foo == nil in the code.

I was learning Ruby in the process of doing this so I'm sure some of it is still lacking in style :) _______________________________________________ Rails-core mailing list Rails-core@lists.rubyonrails.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-core
