Full class name STI not included in eager loading

Reported by Christian Weyer | June 21st, 2008 @ 02:15 PM

When eager loading a polymorphic association, it does not care about the full class name (with module) in the associated type column (attached_type in the following example).

Example:

class Shared::Address

belongs_to :attached, :polymorphic => true

end

class Company::Base

has_one :address, :as => :attached, :class_name => 'Shared::Address'

end

When saving the association the attached_type column in the addresses table says correctly Company::Base.

Eager loading the company's address however produces this query: Shared::Address::Load (0.000539) SELECT "addresses".* FROM "addresses" WHERE ("addresses"."attached_id" IN (1) and "addresses"."attached_type" = 'Base')

Attached_type is incorrectly set as "Base" where it should be "Company::Base". Therefore this results in company.address being nil.

Note that only eager load is affected. Loading the association on demand works.

See the contributor guide.

Creating a feature request

Please don't. If you want a new feature in Rails, you'll have to pull up your sleeves and get busy yourself. Or convince someone else to do it. See the contributor guide on how to get going. But posting them here is just going to lead to ticket root.

Creating a bug report

When creating a bug report, be sure to include as much relevant information as possible. Post the code sample that causes the problem. Preferably, alter the unit tests and show through either changed or added tests how the expected behavior is not occuring.

Security vulnerabilities should be reported via an email to security@rubyonrails.org, do not use trac for reporting security vulnerabilities. All content in trac is publicly available as soon as it is posted.

Then don't get your hopes up. Unless you have a "Code Red, Mission Critical, The World is Coming to an End" kinda bug, you're creating this ticket in the hope that others with the same problem will be able to collaborate with you on solving it. Do not expect that the ticket automatically will see any activity or that others will jump to fix it. Creating a ticket like this is mostly to help yourself start on the path of fixing the problem and for others to sign on to with a "I'm having this problem too"..
