Question about belongs_to

rubyonrails-talk
1

Hello guys,

I am trying to create a belongs_to relation between 2 tables.

table users id login .

table apps id admin . .

I need to create a belongs_to relation on the App model. The admin column in apps references the user login. I will have used user_id instead of the login name but I can't change this right now (so they said), so I have to try to make the relationship as it is. I did the following but I don't know how to put that admin should reference the User login column:

belongs_to :owner, :class_name = "User", :foreign_key => "admin"

Help please any,

Elías

ActiveRecord doesn't support that.
