ActiveRecord::find issue with :includes

#3

I can't write a complete spec because it'll need a real db. Anyway, let me explain in the context of active_record_persistence_spec.rb as if it were hitting a db. 


class Cleaver < ActiveRecord::Base


end


class June < ActiveRecord::Base


include AASM


belongs_to :cleaver


aasm_column :status


end


class Beaver < June


end


describe 'Beavers' do


it "should offer included finds" do


Beaver.find(:first, :include => :cleaver)


end


end

gives

ActiveRecord::ConfigurationError: Association named 'cleaver' was not found; perhaps you misspelled it?

Beaver.first.cleaver works fine. It's just including the association in the find that seems to be the problem.

If I include AASM in Beaver instead of June, life is good.

I'm using Rails 2.1 and rubyist-aasm 2.0.2

    I've been digging and have narrowed this down a bit. For some reason when June includes AASM, inherited_with_inheritable_attributes is not called. This method is aliased to inherited by Rails and sets up the association metadata in Beaver. If I directly call

    June.send :inherited_with_inheritable_attributes, Beaver

    the problem goes away.

    I created a dummy module and included that in June to see if this was a deeper issue in Ruby and/or Rails, but the error does not appear. It's specific to AASM so far as I can tell.

    Thanks - I'll dig into this and see what I can turn up.

    I have an isolated solution I'm almost happy with. Will update with a

    pull request when ready.

    A deeper solution may be to use an inheritable attribute for the state

    machine. I'll send you a quick fix and decide whether I want to tackle

    that refactoring.
