Hi all.

I have a project which has two “trees” branching out from it in terms of  
children. Currently I am nested including one branch:

@projects = Project.find(:all, :include =\> [:component =\> {:category =\>  
:testcase} ] )

but I am unsure how to include the second branch. Essentially I want to  
include the merge the following with the above:

@projects = Project.find(:all, :include =\> [:testsuite =\> {:build =\>  
:results} ] )

Also, what would be the syntax to include another level deep? Would it  
just be nesting another {} in there?

@projects = Project.find(:all, :include =\> [:testsuite =\> {:build =\>  
{:results =\> :testcasetemplate} } ] )

Many thanks,

RJ
