Thanks a lot Chris. Sadly, I've got my work cut out for me, as changing the name of the model in this fairly mature application is going to be some work. But at least it all makes some sense now.
Is it possible to change the model name without changing the name of the _associations_ that point to it in other models? Or, I guess, to alias the association name 'request' to an 'actual' association named service_request or whatever. To give me less code that has to be changed? Any advice as to the lowest impact way to change a model name in a mature application with lots of code that refers to that model, and to associations in other models that point to that model? Odd that I got away with it in Rails 1.x, but oh well, I guess it was really incorrect all along. Jonathan Chris Bartlett wrote: > Jonathan is probably right.
