validate_uniqueness_of meaningless error
Reported by nachocab (at gmail) | March 7th, 2009 @ 05:56 PM | in 2.x
Added new error to warn against validating a non-existent column.
Currently doing this, raises this error:
Topic.validates_uniqueness_of(:item) #instead of:item_id Topic.create(:item => Item.new)
NoMethodError Message: <"undefined method text?' for
nil:NilClass">

- State changed from new to wontfix
- Patch shouldn't be changing things not related to the ticket.
- I think it's best to leave out such error warnings. No other validations are doing it, so no point in making an exception for validate_uniqueness_of
Thanks.

Thank you Pratik, I understand that if you let inconsistent code creep in once, you're much more likely to do it again next time. Hope to code something better next time.
Thanks
Nacho
