Observed on Rails 2.3 and machinist 1.0.6
Like the title says, when you define the method empty? like in the following example, you may not longer use collection.make.
class Book
has_many :pages
def empty?
pages.empty?
end
end
Assuming
b1 = Book.find(1)
b2 = Book.find(2)
instead of expected
b1.pages.make #=> #<Page id: 1, book_id: 1>
b2.pages.make #=> #<Page id: 2, book_id: 2>
you'll get
b1.pages.make #=> #<Page id: 1, book_id: 3>
b2.pages.make #=> #<Page id: 2, book_id: 4>
So if you want to keep your empty? method, from now on you have to write
page = Page.make(:book => b1)
to reliably add records to the collection.
