Rails: Serializing objects in a database?
- by keruilin
I'm looking for some general guidance on serializing objects in a database.
What are serialized objects?
What are some best-practice scenarios for serializing objects in a DB?
What attributes do you use when creating the column in the DB so you can use a serialized object?
How to save a serialized object?
And how to access the serialized object and its attributes? (Using hashes?)
