Thank you for digging around. I should have shown more context --
'self' is in fact what I intended:
=========
class Premise < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :premise_weather_stations, :dependent => :destroy
has_many :weather_stations, :through => :premise_weather_stations
...
def find_local_weather_stations
stations = WeatherStation.find_stations_near(self)
premise_weather_stations = stations.map do |station|
PremiseWeatherStation.create(:premise => self, :weather_station =>
station)
end
end
...
end
=========
which is to say, find_local_weather_stations is an instance method which
associates this Premise ('self') with a list of WeatherStation
('station') objects, creating a PremiseWeatherStation object to form
each association.
What's really odd is that I monkey patched the raise_on_type_mismatch()
method to print out the record and the @reflection. Regardless of where
I run them (console, test, or server), they print out as the same.
HOWEVER, record.is_a?(@reflection.klass) returns true in the console or
test suite, false in the server. I'm really mystified.
