Chris,
I've been trying to use the active_record_base_without_table and it
seems to work okay, until I try to dynamically create the model
objects. At the moment I assign variables like so:
obj.instance_variable_set("@#{varname}", val)
However it seems that ActiveRecords don't hold values in variables,
but in an attribute hash. This seems to get set like so:
obj.method_missing("@#{varname}=", [val], nil)
But this doesn't seem to work at all.
Is there a way of programatically assigning values to ActiveRecord
columns?
