ActiveRecord introspection

Rails

Hi,

I have a reasonably complex AR object, that has_many, contains foreign
keys, and so on. How can I get the names of all the ‘attribute
methods’? Getting the column names isn’t so difficult, but getting
the associations seems to be trickier…

Thanks,
Dave Welton

Take a look at the reflect_on_* methods in the API.
