Give me NIL or null results

Rails
1

with this post; with a query with multiple tables, I am trying to return
results that are null in one table; I am trying to do something like
this;

class NumbersFeedLink < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :numbers_sent_feed_link
end

class NumbersSentFeedLink < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :numbers_feed_link
end

 sent = NumbersFeedLink.find(:all,
                :order => [ "created_on desc" ],
                :limit => @max_links_send,
                :conditions => [ "numbers_sent_feed_link == nil" ]
                )

The :conditions options accepts SQL that matches your database
conventions.

In PostgreSQL you could do:

:conditions => [ ‘numbers_sent_feed_link IS NULL’ ]

Good luck!

It works in mysql too.
