I have this piece of code below. It used to work fine, I was using active record 2.3.8. I upgraded to active record 3.2.1 and moved some gems into a gemfile. Now what happens is rec below is an active record instance, when I enter the thread it appears to become nil. The method repopulate() is not longer defined. Why would that happen ?
... ... def new_thread(slot,&block) th = Thread.new(&block) @pool[slot] = th end
... ...
p rec.respond_to?(:repopulate) # this is fine @tpool.new_thread(slot) do # see method definition above Thread.current[:rset_fact] = model puts 'in thread' p rec.respond_to?(:repopulate) # no longer defined rec.repopulate # error rec is nil end
