hi all,
im trying to do this:
class Event < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :previous_event
has_one :event, :as => :previous_event, :foreign_key => "previous_event_id"
belongs_to :next_event
has_one :event, :as => :next_event, :foreign_key => "next_event_id"
end
because i want to enable the user to repeat events and change multiple oncoming events at the same time. what am i doing wrong, or is there another way of doing this? somehow i need to know about the previous and the next event, don't i? when i'm testing this in the consolewith Event.all[1].previous_event
, i get the following error:
NameError: uninitialized constant Event::PreviousEvent
