From 604a09462eb6ad9eec0bd8ba3f100f6c402945e3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Heinemeier Hansson Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2004 21:51:14 +0000 Subject: Added Base#update_attributes that'll accept a hash of attributes and save the record (returning true if it passed validation, false otherwise). Added a return value for Base#update_attribute, so that you get to know whether the save was successful or if it failed validation. git-svn-id: http://svn-commit.rubyonrails.org/rails/trunk@207 5ecf4fe2-1ee6-0310-87b1-e25e094e27de --- activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'activerecord/lib/active_record') diff --git a/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb b/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb index 2bcea9dd5d..81f9f84d21 100755 --- a/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb +++ b/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb @@ -789,7 +789,13 @@ module ActiveRecord #:nodoc: # Updates a single attribute and saves the record.
