Active Record

Hi,

I am new to active record and still learning the ropes. Can you help with the following please?

I have the following code:

class Row < ActiveRecord::Base end

ActiveRecord::Schema.define do        create_table :Rows do |t|           t.column :Item_guid, :string           t.column :Tags, :string, :limit => 4000          t.column :Path, :string, :limit => 4000           t.column :Comment, :string, :limit => 4000           t.column :Item_Id, :string           t.column :Type, :string           t.column :Kind, :string           t.column :Name, :string        end     end

Row.create( :Item_guid => guid,           :Tags => tags,             :Path => pathname,             :Comment => comment,             :Item_Id => itemid,             :Type => type,             :Kind => kind,             :Name => name       )   end

I delete the table Rows and I change my schema to remove the column "Name" and adjust my row.create statement accordingly by removing ":Name => name", Next time I run the code I get an error message indicating there is an issue inputting the data into the "Name" column. I am not sure why it still exists?

If I use a different class (e.g. entry) then the code will run fine. It is like the old defination of Row still exists after I change it.

Any suggestions\help appreciated.

Thanks G

If you are using ActiveRecord in Rails or outside in a stand alone app? If in Rails, which version of Rails are you using?
