Models are thin wrappers on external entities. Rails offers ActiveRecord as the One True Best external object to wrap. That's the convention. To bypass the convention, simply do not use script/generate model. Just write the .rb file you want in app/models, put a class inside with the same name, and make it use whatever external entities you want to link to. All the rest of Rails will work the same... -- Phlip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
