I'm wondering about the difference between update_attributes(:method) and class.method=
I have setup an example similar to the one here: http://ryandaigle.com/articles/2008/3/24/what-s-new-in-edge-rails-has-one-through The main difference is that I use a has_one instead of has_many for my has_one :through relationship (has_one :subscription) the following code works: u = User.create(:name=>"test_user") => #<User id: 10001, name: "test_user", created_at: "2009-01-16 14:59:45", updated_at: "2009-01-16 14:59:45"> u.magazine = Magazine.create(:name => "mag") => #<Magazine id: 10005, name: "mag", created_at: "2009-01-16 14:59:48", updated_at: "2009-01-16 14:59:48"> u.subscription => #<Subscription id: 10001, user_id: 10001, magazine_id: 10005, created_at: "2009-01-16 14:59:48", updated_at: "2009-01-16 14:59:48"> However, if I try u.update_attributes(:magazine=>m) the return is true yet u.subscription is nil Can anybody explain why that is? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
