basically I've got a design which has a model describing, say a folder, and within each folder I associate some notes. I've built my models so that a folder can have many notes, and that a note belongs to a folder. Now, a folder can belongs to a person, and a person therefore has many folders. what I'm attempting to do is display all the folders for a given user, which is pretty simple as I can simply so
folders = Person.find(1,:include=>[:folders]) however, what I also want to do is display the most recent note against each folder. Although I can do this by simply adding the notes into my include, folders = Person.find(1,:include=>[:folders=>:notes]) I'd really perfer not to load each and every note assigned to each and every folder. I've been playing about for a while now trying to get active record to load my assoicates but only include the first note for each folder. can anybody help? maybe it's not even possible? Perhaps I need to change my approach? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated/welcome. thanks --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
