Greetings all.
I'm having problems with a belongs_to not reporting the *correct* info.
>> p = Patient.new => #<Patient:0x26284e0 @new_record=true, @attributes={"work_phone"=>nil, "city"=>nil, "postal_code"=>nil, "ACRES"=>nil, "health_insurance_province_id"=>nil, "province_id"=>nil, "country_id"=>nil, "address_two"=>nil, "firstname"=>nil, "lastname"=>nil, "health_insurance_expiry"=>nil, "health_insurance_version"=>nil, "id_orig"=>0, "PROVIDNUM"=>nil, "work_extension"=>nil, "sex"=>nil, "health_insurance_number"=>nil, "home_phone"=>nil, "PROVIDNAME"=>nil, "date_of_birth"=>nil, "middle_initial"=>nil, "other_phone"=>nil, "address_one"=>nil, "health_insurance_prov"=>nil}> >> p.country_id = 100 #honduras => 100 >> p.country => #<Country:0x25a99d8 @attributes={"name_short"=>nil, "priority"=>"0", "name_long"=>"Honduras", "id"=>"100"}> >> p.country_id = 105 #Indonesia => 105 >> p.country => #<Country:0x25a99d8 @attributes={"name_short"=>nil, "priority"=>"0", "name_long"=>"Honduras", "id"=>"100"}> >> p.country_id => 105
wtf? why is Honduras returned as p.country? not honduras?
class Patient < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :country
...
I'm not aware of anything else that should impact the above symptom. Any ideas rails riders?
It somehow seems that the relationship Country isn't related to the attribute "country_id" ??
rails --version 1.1.6
cheers, Jodi
