Referencing scope of parent class using set_table_name generates incorrect SQL with parent table name
Reported by Fluxx | January 12th, 2011 @ 06:56 PM
It seems that when call a scope on a subclass using
set_table_name
, where the scope is defined in the
parent class, results in using the table name of the parent.
Here is a basic script to repro the issue. This is on ActiveRecord 3.0.3:
require "rubygems"
require "active_record"
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
:adapter => "sqlite3",
:dbfile => ":memory:",
:database => "test"
)
ActiveRecord::Schema.define do
create_table "people", :force => true do |t|
t.string "name", :null => false
end
create_table "children", :force => true do |t|
t.string "name", :null => false
t.string "favorite_toy", :null => false
end
end
class People < ActiveRecord::Base
scope :named, lambda { |name| where(:name => name) }
end
class Child < People
set_table_name "children"
end
People.create(:name => "Fred")
p People.named("Fred")
Child.create(:name => "Jonny", :favorite_toy => "Elmo")
p Child.named("Jonny")
Running it results in:
jeff ~ $ ruby ar_inheritance_test.rb
-- create_table("people", {:force=>true})
-> 0.2486s
-- create_table("children", {:force=>true})
-> 0.0079s
[#<People id: 1, name: "Fred">]

from ar_inheritance_test.rb:37
I believe the SQL generated should be:
SELECT "children".* FROM "children" WHERE ("children"."name" = 'Jonny')
