Thanks. This is what I wanted.

But in my case, two model objects (in the RailsCasts, User) are equal.
So, I tried

in person.rb

    has_many :give_meetinges, :class_name => "Meeting", :foreign_key =>
"give_id"
    has_many :gives, :class_name => "Person", :through =>
:give_meetinges, :source => :person
    has_many :take_meetinges, :class_name => "Meeting", :foreign_key =>
"take_id"
    has_many :takes, :class_name => "Person", :through =>
:take_meetinges, :source => :person

I'm not sure if you need to specify the class_name for a has_many through association
 

in meeting.rb

    belongs_to :give_person, :class_name => "Person"
    belongs_to :take_person, :class_name => "Person"

this means that the foreign key is set to give_person_id and take_person_id
but in your person model, the foreign key is give_id and take_id
 

in the view, ('take' is person object)

        <%= take.give_meetings.give_person %>

raises an error,

undefined method `give_plan' for []:ActiveRecord::Relation

Since it's 'Relation',

        <%= take.give_meetings.first.give_person %>

also raises an error

undefined method `give_plan' for nil:NilClass

this is an expected error if there are no give_meetings for take.  if there
is at least on give_meetings for take, this will not raise an error (assuming
that your associations and foreign keys are setup correctly)
 
i don't see any give_plan on your code.  paste the code that stacktrace
points to the source of this error.


Can see problems in my code?
