[PATCH] add :noselect option to ActiveRecord#find
I've found myself in the need to discard one or two columns when I call ActiveRecord#find (all, first, last, etc), let's say the users table have 5 columns and I don't want one of them I do this:
User.all(:select => "col_1, col_2, col_3, col_4")
why don't just do:
User.all(:noselect => "col_5")
well, this patch lets you do that.

Josh KalderimisHi,
Please add tests showing that this patch works for an array of symbols and string of :no_select values.
Thanks

Excuse me, why do you want my patch to work with an array of symbols if the ActiveRecord#find method doesn't support it?
I mean User.all(:select => [:created_at, :updated_at]) won't work, so :no_select shouldn't either, don't you think?
I actually haven't checked out 2.3.6, 2.3.7 nor 2.3.8 I don't know if it works in those versions, please, let me know.
Thanks in advance.
