Thanks for pointing that out. I misunderstood what MetaType was
referring to. The error is gone, but another problem appeared. I
tried to complete my simple test
var foo = new Foo();
foo.Journals.Add(new JournalBuilder().DoNotPersist().Build());
foo.Save();
var actual = Foo.Find(foo.Id);
Assert.That(actual.Journals, Has.Count(1));
foreach (var journal in actual.Journals)
{
Assert.That(journal.Journalable, Is.Not.Null);
}
The problem is that in the Journals table, the JournalableId is
populated with the PK of Foo, but the JournalableType is null. So,
when I check my association from Journal to Foo it is null. Ideas?
Again, thanks for the help Markus.
