There was a question recently on the Rails ML that asked for basically a database restrict.
If an object has_many somethings and there are children somethings, don't allow that object to be destroyed.
I have a couple of questions about this.
1. Is having this as an option for :dependent a good idea?
2. Assuming that it is a reasonable thing to have, how do I go about
a. writing a test for the patch
b. submitting a patch, (I'm on windows)
I have found the code in active record to make the change, downloaded the source and got the standard tests working, but I have no idea of what test to write to confirm it works.
Do I write a seperate class with the option included? I really have no idea, very noob at this.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Cheers
Daniel
