I''ve encountered what seems like an odd omission in the behaviour of belongs_to associations: if you assign to the foreign key attribute, it doesn''t update the associated object (or mark a previously loaded one as stale) until you explicitly save or reload it. Let''s say we have a Company model, which belongs_to :city : >> torchbox =

I was implementing dirty checking for an application, and I found something that is a little counterintuitive. Let me start with a quick quiz: bob=User.find(1) alice=User.find(2) trip=Trip.new trip.driver=bob old_driver=trip.driver trip.driver=alice In this example, who is old_driver? If you guessed Alice, you''re right. Inside associations.rb, the mutator is defined as:

Hope someone can tell me what''s up, because this has me baffled. I have an Image model, and a Provider model. Both are defined as "has_and_belongs_to_many" relating to each other. In my image form partial, I have a bit of AJAX generating the provider_ids array dynamically from a provider AJAX search on the same page. So for example, each time I click on a provider name that

Hi I am trying to use acts_as_taggable_on in my new projects. But I got Error when I try to save tags. undefined method `each'' for "[]":String NoMethodError: undefined method `each'' for "":String from C:/Ruby19/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/ activerecord-3.0.0.beta3/lib/active_record/associations/ association_collection.rb:347:in `replace''

I recently submitted a patch to work around an issue I was having & added a new optional behaviour to the to_xml method but on further reflection I wonder if the default behaviour should be changed. The gory detail, documentation and test case is all here... http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/7004 Here''s a brief example... class Person < ActiveRecord::Base has_many: children

First off, congrats to everyone for getting Rails 2 released. A lot of work went into the release, and it''s good to see us reach this milestone. And now that the release dust has settled, I think it might be useful for us to have a retrospective and evaluate how the release went. I think the Ruby on Rails project has improved a lot this year, and this is another opportunity

I just found this ticket because I noticed the same issue. http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/6251 The official response was that it''s not a bug because when you use :joins you are "riding close to the metal". But I''m at a loss as to figure out why this behavior even needs to exist. Every table (except HABTM links) in a typical Rails app is going to have an id

Hi, it would be nice to have the touch option in has_many associations also. I have a scenario like this: An user has some credit (money) and some advertises. Each advertise can be enabled or disabled depending on some rules. One of the rules is that the user should have money. Each time the money of the user change, the advertises are touched, enabled/disabled and then cached, as they are much

Filter chaining appears to behave in differently than Rails 1.2.x. It seems that I''m getting a lot of errors along the lines of: ActionController::ActionControllerError: filter #<ActionController::Filters::ClassMethods::BeforeFilterProxy:0x322f468 @filter=#<ActionController::Filters::ClassMethods::SymbolFilter: 0x322f4b8 @filter=:login_required>> was in the wrong place!

Request for eyeballs. :-) Mongoid uses association proxy objects. It overrides #nil? => false when the association is missing. However since it uses proxy objects, !!assocation is always true. I have created a ticket with a patch that changes the association nil test to call assocation.nil? rather than use implicit coercion of the variable. See:

Yesterday I answered a question regarding polymorphic URL helpers on Core ML and noticed that the module has no documentation. I''ve documented it and rewritten unit tests using Mocha. I also optimized some of the code slightly (nothing major, though). The patch also includes two fixes by Geoff Buesing, who has done awesome work in this area in the past.

I was working with acts_as_taggable earlier and thought I could make it a bit friendlier. I submitted a ticket and patch #8279. Basically, there are three differences. 1. Fixed the deprecated :dependent => true 2. Added migration generator (it has really specific requirements on table layout, so might as well generate it). 3. Expanded the README to explain using the migration and to include

http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/1117 I''ve attached a patch to ticket 1117 which fixes it so that booleans are escaped as booleans, not integers. Specifically, this situation will now work find_all(["send_date=? and sent=?", Date.today, false]) Which matches peoples expectations, but it causes some problems with the postgresql unit tests. Specifically, the use of

I just noticed I frequently encounter patches that need to be updated because of applied changes. Maybe this can be automated? Not automating the "updating of the patch" part, but the part where a comment is posted to the ticket so the submitter is informed. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

We are looking for a FastCGI protocol compliant RoR executable that can be used to host RoR in FastCGI mode. However, neither Ruby.exe nor Rubyw.exe appear to work with the FastCGI protocol (http://www.fastcgi.com/devkit/doc/fcgi-spec.html). Perhaps we are missing specific command line switches, or environment variables necessary to make this work. Any information much appreciated. Thanks,

Hi, I''m getting a little confused how Rails handles loading models. I''m on development mode, using Rails 3.1.0.rc1 on ruby 1.8.7 My application models are: Curso Legislacao Usuario And I have another model that is loaded from a gem Im trying to build: Cidade My gem is actually a simple engine: require ''active_record'' require

Perhaps this is intentional, but it seems unlikely: class Person < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :school end p = Person.find(:first) p.school # nil p.school_id = School.find_by_name(''High School'').id p.school.name # High School p.school_id = School.find_by_name(''Primary School'').id p.school.name # High School <= Shouldn''t this be Primary

Hey guys, We''ve been talking about the multi-byte patch and I think it''s time to get feedback from you guys on a possible way forward. We can include ActiveSupport::Multibyte with rails 1.2, and update all of the relevant helpers to use the String#chars proxy. This will mean that none of the action view helpers will mangle multibyte strings. Similarly, if any Strings are being

Looking over the discussions and Trac tickets am I correct in assuming that the simply_helpful''s form_for not respecting the default_url_options (specifically only_path) is a side-effect of some other default behavior choices? Personally, I set only_path to true as my default as I think except were you are dealing with https it makes life much easier (especially in testing) and is just
