Eh eh, nice one :) Seriously though, what should we do ? Leaving off class methods seems like the easiest method so far. Will we be bitten later on ? That's the question we have to ask.

In that case, should auto read/write methods be forbidden for such columns ? In the end, we're trying to keep the principle of least surprise active. What's less suprising: instance.transaction = Transaction.new # NoMethodError - OR - instance.transaction do bla bla end # nothing committed - no unit tests = bug not exposed Bye ! -- François Beausoleil http://blog.teksol.info/
