I have a standard ActiveRecord model with the following:
class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
  custom_method :first_field, :second_field
end
At the moment, that custom_method is picked up by a module sent to ActiveRecord::Base. The functionality basically works, but of course, it attaches itself…

I would like to know if it is possible to get the types (as known by AR - eg in the migration script and database) programmatically (I know the data exists in there somewhere). 
For example, I can deal with all the attribute names:   
ar.attribute_names.each { |name| puts name }
.attributes just…

I needed to fix the encoding of an ActiveRecord attribute and decided to do it in a before_save hook. And at this point I noticed an unexpected feature. When I wanted to change the value of the attribute, simple using the attribute_name=XY did not work as I expected. Instead of that I needed to use…

One of practices advocated by Nhibernate experts is to do all actions in inside a transaction.  
In a typical 3 tier web architecture, Nhibernate depedency is limited the data layer.  
In such a case is it fine to use 
  using (var tr = NHibernateSession.Current.BeginTransaction()) {
at the controller…

Hello, and first off thanks for your time to look at this.
For a research project I'm working on, I have a somewhat complex design (which I've been given) to persist to a database via NHibernate.
Here's an example of the class hierarchy:
TransitStrategy, TransportationCompany and TransportationLocation…

Hello, I have a table with a time column in my SQL Server 2008 database.
The property of the object I'm trying to map to is a TimeSpan.
How can i tell FluentNHibernate to use the TimeAsTimeSpan NHibernate type, so that I don't have cast problems?
