I have been struggling for quite sometime with this. Is there any way to configure the Model to store user defined value in the inheritance_column instead of the default value (which is class_name) The problem I have is like this: I have a User model and there are different models which inherit from this like Admin, Premium, Professional, etc. Each of these inherited models are identified by a

I have a model where I have a tree of nodes in one table (acts_as_tree) where I also use a type column to get inheritance. In this table I also have a data_id column that refers to another row in another table (the subclass knows what table). I also have another class that have this line class Page < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :node, :foreign_key =>

I''m putting together a Rails application that will display information from an existing database. The database has a "job" table that contains a "type" column. I''ve successfully overridden the names of the table and the name of the inheritance column by adding def self.table_name() ''job'' end Job.inheritance_column

I''ve made a inheritance rework some weeks ago that would possible fix it since it only loads the inheritance support in the class that''ll use it. In STI case, it would load only if the class that descends directly from AR has been inherited and the column specified in the inheritance_column is available. People here told me to wait until next release so we can dig into this, but

Hey, I have been looking at ActiveRecord''s serialization code, and noticed that ActiveRecord::XmlSerializer#serializable_attributes purposely excludes the STI inheritance column per ``options[:except] = Array(options[:except]) | Array(@record.class.inheritance_column).'''' Is there a particular reason for this? Would anyone be opposed to my writing a patch to have this

Hello, I stumble upon this error when loading a subclass of the Transaction class. For full details, see the pastie: http://pastie.org/4053678 Error message: ActiveRecord::SubclassNotFound: The single-table inheritance mechanism failed to locate the subclass: ''Transactions::DummyDdnlTransaction''. This error is raised because the column ''type'' is reserved for

Hi! I have a legacy table that has a column named "type" and need to remove this automatic subclassing by ActiveRecord. The api pages are vague about this, and I tried self.inheritance_column = "xtype" which seemed to get me half-way. In the validate_on_create method, the value of self.type was my model Class name. How would you disable this feature? -- Posted via

I started using robotcoop''s CachedModel class in my project but have encountered problems when using it with the acts_as_ferret plugin. It seems it doesn''t index everything in my STI model, also if I do a search from my base STI class I get a result count but no results. If I run the same search from one of the children STI models I get the appropriate results (if the information

I''m building a new index from scratch based on a number of documents stored in a database loaded using my Rails env (using Ruby Ferret 0.9x (installed today with Gem) on Windows). At first everything goes nice but after a number of documents it starts to go slower and slower until it grinds to a halt (at least feels like it). Am I doing something wrong? Is there some way to work

Hi, I''m writing this app with inheritance. I''m using the type column to store the class name. Another app scans the app and performs actions. However, it is possible that the second app does not implement a class, in which case, the superclass should be instantiated. Now I''m getting: /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.2/lib/

Hi, I''m building a frontend for a legacy schema, with tables like this: CREATE TABLE `types` ( `a_type_cd` varchar(6) NOT NULL default '''', `a_type` varchar(30) NOT NULL default '''', PRIMARY KEY (`a_type_cd`) ); The primary key is specified by the user (not auto-generated), and needs to be updateable. I create the following a base class to

Hello, I have the following output when changing form Active Record 1.0.1 to ActiveRecord 1.6: [error] C:/dev/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.4.0/lib/action_controller/support/dependencies.rb:24:in `depend_on'': uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::Mixins (ScriptError)\r [error] \tfrom

FIXED: Transaction is a reserved word, and it cannot be used even though I put it into its own module. So my guess is Transactions::Transaction still somehow got resolved to the Rails internal Transaction class. Renamed the Transaction (and its subclasses) to Transact and it works fine now.

My first stab at the whole metaprogramming / DSL thing. Fun stuff. Includes unit tests, fixtures, etc, etc. Tested against Oracle and PostgreSQL so far. I''d appreciate it if some MySQL folks could try it out. Hopefully I got the MySQL CREATE TABLE syntax correct. http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3402 Assuming this kind of thing is OK, I''d like to make

Hi! I got a class named EinsatzFilter which I serialized to session. Before saving to session it works afterwards I keep getting the message: "undefined method `to_s'' for #<Person:0x38c6ab8>". "Person" is a from ActiveRecord::Base inherited class. Code: class EinsatzFilter include ApplicationHelper attr_reader :personen, :monat, :projekte, :kunde

Hi, Just wondering when one would use "include" over "extend"? Both seem to bring in methods to the class no? The context is I''m just trying to understand why both are used with the acts_as_audited plugin: Full extract from plugin (used within here): ================================================== # Copyright (c) 2006 Brandon Keepers # # Permission is hereby

I updated some of my gems, and I think it may be the reason I am getting the following error when the agents try to retrieve a catalog. err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: The single-table inheritance mechanism failed to locate the subclass: ''Host::Managed''. This error is raised because the column ''type'' is reserved for

Hi, I''m having fun playing around with Camping...I am slowly working on extending tepee to a personal e-notebook sort of tool (never lose my papers/revisions....hehe). I''ve given tepee an oswd css design, and am currently adding a admin page that I want to show the ruby version, sqlite version and db size and db stats information. I tried running: @db_stats =

Hi all, Has anyone ever thought about or implemented a way to use Rails to pull content from a database and actually *generate* static html pages from view templates? I want to throw a bunch of content into a db using rails and then put all my website templates into the views dir and write the files out with the content inside. The funny thing is that the html pages Rails normally outputs to

In the actionpack-1.12.5\lib\action_controller\base.rb, you can see the definition: class Base include Reloadable::Subclasses ... And following is the definition of Reloadable: # Classes that include this module will automatically be reloaded # by the Rails dispatcher when Dependencies.mechanism = :load. module Reloadable class << self def included(base) #nodoc: raise
