update_attribute_with_validation_skipping removed from 2.2 RC

Reported by Niels Meersschaert | November 11th, 2008 @ 10:20 PM

There was a method in ActiveRecord called update_attribute_with_validation_skipping. It was defined in activerecord/lib/active_record/validations.rb. The documentation is at http://api.rubyonrails.org/class...

Under 2.2.0 RC, any ActiveRecord descendent that tries to use that gets a NoMethodError: undefined method update_attribute_with_validation_skipping' exception.

- Assigned user set to “Pratik”
- Milestone cleared.
Pratik nuked it, but you should just be using update_attribute, it skips the validations anyway.

We'll add it back in with deprecation warnings.

Thanks for letting me know. Is there an equivalent to update_attribute which does the validation? I liked being able to update a single attribute & save with validation in one line, or so I thought I was doing that.

update_attributes :field => value will do the validation.
