I have since abandoned using this plugin because it creates a lot of unforseen problems. Its my opinion that this is something that has to be built into the core for it to really work properly with everything. The problems I encountered far outweighed any benefit. I recommend just doing a normal has_one association and just calling the parent model methods and attributes using child.parent.method instead of using this class table inheritance.

I’m so appreciating this CTI lib. It works well in the Rails 2.02. Now I want to upgrade my rails to the latest version 2.3.5. The CTI can’t work well now. Rails 2.3.5 changes a lot. So ask help. Whether the author can upgrade this CTI lib? Thank you!

sory, the minor signus is not allowed…
i have this:

publication.rb
class Publication ‘inherits’ ActiveRecord::Base
end

book.rb
class Book ‘inherits’ Publication
class_table_inheritance
end

When i do, book/show or book/list only shows the attributes of Publication.
There is something that i’m doing wrong???

Thanks. Gonzalo

Sory if my english is a little poor…
