Hey All,
Am I wrong in thinking that the id and new_record? attributes should be reverted if a transaction is rolled back? They don't currently revert so the id attribute is left with a value that isn't actually in the database and new_record? is returning false even though it should be true.
Here's a test demonstrating what I'm talking about:
def test_should_reset_id_and_new_record_if_the_transaction_rolls_back topic_count_before_save = Topic.count
new_topic = Topic.new( :title => "A new topic", :author_name => "Ben", :author_email_address => "ben@example.com", :written_on => "2003-07-16t15:28:11.2233+01:00", :last_read => "2004-04-15", :bonus_time => "2005-01-30t15:28:00.00+01:00", :content => "Have a nice day", :approved => false)
new_record_snapshot = new_topic.new_record? id_present = new_topic.has_attribute?(Topic.primary_key) id_snapshot = new_topic.id
Topic.transaction do new_topic.save raise ActiveRecord::Rollback end
topic_count_after_save = Topic.count
assert_equal topic_count_before_save, topic_count_after_save assert_equal new_record_snapshot, new_topic.new_record?, "The topic should have its old new_record value" assert_equal id_snapshot, new_topic.id, "The topic should have its old id" assert_equal id_present, new_topic.has_attribute?(Topic.primary_key) end
Thanks,
Jonathan
