I have a simple model with no explicit validations: class WeatherStation include DataMapper::Resource
property :id, Serial property :callsign, String property :lat, Decimal, :precision => 9, :scale => 6 property :lng, Decimal, :precision => 9, :scale => 6 end And a simple test: >> lat = 41.52639 >> lng1 = -71.150299 >> lng2 = -71.18972 Creating a record with lng1 succeeds: >> a = WeatherStation.create(:callsign => "a", :lat => lat, :lng => lng1) => #<WeatherStation @id=8 @callsign="a" @lat=#<BigDecimal:1039e9338,'0.4152639E2',18(45)> @lng=#<BigDecimal:1039e8c08,'-0.71150299E2',18(45)>> Creating a record with lng2 fails (as evidenced by @id=nil): >> b = WeatherStation.create(:callsign => "b", :lat => lat, :lng => lng2) => #<WeatherStation @id=nil @callsign="b" @lat=#<BigDecimal:103a15230,'0.4152639E2',18(45)> @lng=#<BigDecimal:103a148d0,'-0.7118971999 999999E2',27(45)>> >> b.errors.full_messages => ["Lng must be a number"] My best guess is that attempting to coerce "-71.150299" into a Decimal is working but coercing "-71.18972" is failing. Can anyone offer insights as to what is going on and how to fix this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DataMapper" group.
