AB or AC would have: id a_id b_id or c_id plus other fields xlink would have: id (the xlink record id) x_id (the id of the related X record) xlinkable_id (this is the id of the AB/AC join record) xlinkable_type (this is the class name "AB"/"AC" of the join record) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
