Hi guys, ActiveRecord in rails3 has a nice improvement where most of the API returns a ActiveRecord::Relation so you can chain things together.
> Asset.where(:project_id => 1).class => ActiveRecord::Relation One exception at the moment when using an association, it returns an Array: class Project has_many :assets end > Project.first.assets.class => Array The problem with this is we lose chain-ability, which means I can't do things like this: > @project = Project.first > @project.assets.where(:active => true) though I can get the same thing with something like this > Asset.where(:project_id => 1, :active => true) Personally I prefer lazy loading and chaining and was wondering if it's possible with associations, or am I missing something, any thoughts?
