(Rails 2.3.2, OS X 10.5, MySQL 5.0.x)
I'm seeing some odd behavior that makes no sense to me with respect to
adding new empty records to an ActiveRecord object.
Assuming (shortened for email):
class Article < AR::Base
has_many :pages
end
class Pages < AR::Base
belongs_to :pages
end
If I add a new Page to an Article (with no attribute data), then of
course we would expect to see no validation errors because .new is not
supposed to run through validation.
So, this works as expected (this is my literal short loop test code):
test_object = Article.new
test_object.pages << Page.new
test_offset = test_object.pages.size - 1
test_errors = test_object.pages[test_offset].errors.size
# test_errors -> 0
However, this does not work as expected (literal short loop code for
testing):
test_object = Article.find(:first, :conditions => ["rcrd_id = ?",
"abc123"])
test_object.pages << Page.new
test_offset = test_object.pages.size - 1
test_errors = test_object.pages[test_offset].errors.size
# test_errors -> 4, which correlates to expected errors if I tried to
save an empty record
# I am expecting to see 0
I have tested this on two completely different sets of models, and each
shows the same behavior.
I have combed through all my callbacks, even commented them out. Nothing
in there appears to be the problem (nothing forcing a save that I can
see).
I have this short loop code inside a dead-simple controller index method
with no other code that could interfere AFAICT.
This seems too obvious to be a Rails bug, so I am assuming it's my code
somehow, somewhere.
Any ideas on what else to look at?
