Simplified render breaks with nested models (partials)

#2042

I have a namespaced resource, the model for which is Quiz::Question. In a view, I use the (awesome) new render syntax to render a question's partial (from app/views/quiz/questions/show.html.erb):


<%= render @question %>

Expecting this to resolve to app/views/quiz/questions/_question.html.erb. However, I'm getting the following error message:


Missing template quiz/quiz/questions/_question.erb in view path app/views

(Note the duplicate "quiz"!)

When I replace the call with the old-style render syntax, everything works fine (of course):


<%= render :partial => "quiz/questions/question", :object => @question %>

But obviously it'd be nicer to have the cool new render magic work. :-)

This is with current Edge Rails, revision ff1afbd65098643a06eef928f92fecf6e9d548b2.

This is because in AC::RecordIdentifier.partial_path the controller_path is prepended to the tableized class name. Since your class name is namespaced under Quiz then you get File.join("quiz","quiz/questions/_question"). A workaround is to override the model_name class method and return an instance of AS::ModelName initialized with "Question" instead of the default "Quiz::Question"

Since there's an test for this behaviour I'm assuming that it's desired.
