i keep getting this AssociationTypeMismatch error. i think this could
be a bug related to ruby/rails when using mixins. heres a short
version of my code:
user.rb
require ‘friend_invitation’
require ‘friendship’
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
include FriendInvitationUser, FriendshipUser
…
end
friendship.rb
…
module FriendshipUser
def self.included(includer)
includer.class_eval do
has_many :friends, :through => :friendship
end
end
true, if other_user is a friend of mine
def friend_of?(other_user)
Friendship.between?(self, other_user)
end
…
end
so basically I’m using modules to mixin new aspects into the User
model (kinda like AOP in ruby). i believe that these mixins together
with the require statements at the top of the User model file cause
the AssociationTypeMismatch. if i get the error, a restart of my
development server solves the problem - but that can’t be the
solution. any ideas where this error comes from or what to do about
it?
any help very appreciated!
