Ajax Scaffold Generator Ajax Scaffold

When an active record has two belongs_to relationships to the same table, sorting on either column in the view only sorts the first of the two columns, i.e. sorting on the second column actually sorts the first column.

A poorly devised example ActiveRecord:

class Thing < ActiveRecord::Base

belongs_to :left_side, :class_name => “Side”, :foreign_key => “left_side_id” belongs_to :right_side, :class_name => “Side”, :foreign_key => “right_side_id” @scaffold_columns = [ AjaxScaffold::ScaffoldColumn.new(self, { :name => “left_side_id”, :eval => “thing.left_side.name”, :sort_sql => “sides.name” }), AjaxScaffold::ScaffoldColumn.new(self, { :name => “right_side_id”, :eval => “thing.right_side.name”, :sort_sql => “sides.name” }), ]

end

Example paginator:

@paginator, @things = paginate(:things, :order_by => @sort_by, :per_page => default_per_page, :include => [:left_side, :right_side])
