I am posting a related question in the same thread. It is more of a philosophical question. Can anybody please give me some philosophical explanation why the following behavior of ActiveRecord is considered ok (or should i submit a bug report/feature request?):
In console: > p = Person.create(:name=>'Bill') > p.destroy > p.name # => "Bill" > p.save # => true Nothing is saved in the database, but what disturbs me more is that "save" returned true in such case. A more elaborate version: > p = Person.create(:name=>'Bill') > p.id # => 1 > pp = Person.find(1) > pp.destroyed > p.persisted? => true > p.destroyed? => false > p.save # => true but the database is empty. Again, what bothers me the most is the "true" returned by "save".
