Problem
To get used to the new ways of working with Rails 2.

Solution
Here are some of the new ways of doing things in Rails 2.

  1. Create a scaffold and migration on one step: 
    ./script/generate scaffold product fied1_name:string field2_name:string field3_name:float

    Make sure that you don’t have any previous migration(ie manually created) for the same model, as the generator will stop and won’t overwrite the previous migration.
