I cam across http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/ 1677 yesterday. In a nutshell it boils down to Post.with_scope(:find => ...) { Post.some_scope.find :all } returns posts scoped by both the call to with_scope and the call to some_scope, but Post.with_scope(:find => ...) { Post.some_scope}.find :all returns posts only scoped by some_scope Just like that it doesn''t look too bad: the find happens outside with_scope''s block and so it doesn''t get scoped. Quel surprise. However it means that for example if we have class Post named_scope :base def self.get_me_a_scope base end end then some_user.posts.get_me_a_scope.find :all will return posts from all users, which seems a bad thing. http://gist.github.com/42383 seems to fix that particular but causes a failing test on default_scope (which I haven''t really been following so I''m not 100% aware of what should and should not be) Fred --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
