In Rails 2, will removing a column with a Rails migration also change/remove indexes

  • 0

In Rails 2, will removing a column with a Rails migration also change/remove indexes associated with the column? If not, and instead you have to also change/remove each index manually, shouldn’t it instead be automated?

Thanks (from a Rails newbie)

    No, unfortunately you have to remove the index manually from within your migration using the remove_index method.
