I am very frustrated with :joins in a find.
@debts = Debtortranstaxes.find(:all, :conditions => ["trandate > ? and trandate <= ?", @per1, @per2], :joins => 'LEFT JOIN debtortrans ON debtortrans.id=debtortransid', :order => 'trandate, transno') => [#<Debtortranstaxes debtortransid: 67, taxauthid: 26, taxamount: 0.63>, #<Debtortranstaxes debtortransid: 67, taxauthid: 34, taxamount: 0.2>, #<Debtortranstaxes debtortransid: 68, taxauthid: 24, taxamount: 3.15>, #<Debtortranstaxes debtortransid: 68, taxauthid: 32, taxamount: 0.825>, #<Debtortranstaxes debtortransid: 69, taxauthid: 24, taxamount: 756.0>, #<Debtortranstaxes debtortransid: 69, taxauthid: 32, taxamount: 198.0>]
but this does not contain the columns from debtortrans table...even if I specifically name them with a :select =>
in the console, I can get the value @debts[0].trandate
but inside a loop, the value is not available to me...
for debt in @debts if debt.trandate = ...
it simply tosses an undefined method error
How do I get all of the fields returned from joined tables in query?
