Composite Primary Keys for ActiveRecords  
Bug fix release - 0.3.3

Notes:  
Fixed errors with id= and create.

Note, the create method does not use sequences to generate ids for you.  
If anyone has any use cases where their DBs generate ids for their  
composite keys, pls let me know - we may need to add some syntax to the  
set\_primary\_keys command.

Summary:  
ActiveRecords/Rails famously doesn’t support composite primary keys. For  
2 years there has been no support for this aspect of legacy databases.  
This project will be a fully-featured solution and I welcome use cases  
and legacy DB schema samples to help make the project work with as many  
common legacy environments as possible.

Cheers  
Nic
