Hi,
I'm trying to rename auto generated relationship to a more convenient
name. I checked the docs and the following (rather clumsy) code was
expected to do the job:
package My::Category;
use base 'My::Object';
__PACKAGE__->meta->table('categories');
__PACKAGE__->meta->auto_initialize;
# get the relationship I want to rename
my $cat_rel = __PACKAGE__->meta->relationship('categories');
# remove it
__PACKAGE__->meta->delete_relationship('categories');
# rename it
$cat_rel->name('parent_category');
# add new relation
__PACKAGE__->meta->relationship('parent_category', $cat_rel);
Using My::Category->meta->perl_class_definition I inspected the
relation ships and they looked OK:
...
relationships => [
parent_category => {
class => 'My::Category',
key_columns => { id => 'parent_id' },
type => 'one to many',
},
....
However, when I try to use the new method "parent_category", I get this error:
Can't locate object method "parent_category" via package
"My::Category" at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/Rose/DB/Object.pm
line 1287
It seems adding new relationship doesn't create the new methods so I
tried manually calling make_methods after renaming the relationship
but but I got this error:
Error: Cannot create method My::Category::add_categories - method
already exists at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/Rose/DB/Object/Metadata/MethodMaker.pm
line 420
It seems that the method maker still uses the previous name
("categories") to create the methods.
My questions are:
(a) is there a simpler way for renaming a relationship w/ building new methods
(b) if not (a), how can I make relationship to create methods with
different name
Thanks in advance!
