Hi all,
I just hit a big wall involving a legacy database. I''ve got an active
record class called "School" that uses "set_table_name
''old_school''" to
map to a legacy database table:
class School < ActiveRecord::Base
set_table_name ''old_school''
end
It works great, until I''m testing and I want to use fixtures.
I''ve got
a fixtures file called "old_school.yml" that doesn''t load.
Following
some googled advice
(http://www.missiondata.com/blog/uncategorized/80/rails-fixtures-with-models-using-set_table_name/)
I learned that I had to use set_fixture_class to be able to map the
fixture back to the class name:
# in test_helper.rb
class Test::Unit::TestCase
self.use_transactional_fixtures = true
self.use_instantiated_fixtures = false
set_fixture_class :old_school => School
fixtures :all
end
Seems like it ought to work, but the fixtures still don''t load!
Looking in my test.log I find:
Unable to load old_school, underlying cause no such file to load --

If I "require ''school''" by hand, it makes no
difference. The fixtures
still don''t load.
Has anybody run in to this? Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Brent
