I have two tables in MySQL: football_fixtures and weekly_fixtures. In my code I have two classes class FootballFixture end
and class WeeklyFixture has_many :football_fixtures end the WeeklyFixture class has more code than this, mostly validation In the console window I do this wf = WeeklyFixture.new wf.somefield = somevalue wf.save! and everything is OK however if I do wf = WeeklyFixture(6) # where 6 is an id in the table so the wf is found! wf.football_fixtures[0].name = "value" wf.save! I get a return value of true, but no data is written to the database. I have the log visible on another terminal (tail -f development.log), and I don't see any update call being made. (I do see selects being made when I read the records) I think I'm missing something fundamental here. I assumed that when I updated the related fields and wrote the parent model the the DB then the save would also write the related fields, but this is not happening. BTW, if I do wf.football_fixtures[0].save that does work! What (presumably simple) magic incantation am I missing?
