Using with_deleted on belongs_to breaks class reflections? about acts_as_paranoid HOT 7 CLOSED

+1 to this problem, also seen when migrating from Rails 3.2 to 4.2.

+ 1 from rails 3 to 4 migration

This should be fixed by now, can you confirm? <3

Unfortunately, I have moved on from that project and can't confirm it. Any chance one of the other commenters can check it easily?

I've also moved on from that project. We moved entirely away from this gem in the meantime:

from acts_as_paranoid.

I belive this was fixed by e8f7fbb and released in 0.5.0.beta2.

If you're still having this issue please re-open the ticket.

Thank you!

I think this is a similar underlying issue but with accessing proxy_association. This is also upgrading from Rails 3 to 4 (and AAP 0.4.5 -> 0.5.0):

# illustrative code only, loosely based on my situation
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :projects, through: :collaboratorships do
    def owned
      where('projects.owner_id = ?', proxy_association.owner.id)
    end

    def collaborated
      where('projects.owner_id <> ?', proxy_association.owner.id)
    end
  end
end

# In Rails 3.2.22.5, with AAP 0.4.5:
user.projects.with_deleted.collaborated #=> [#<Project ...>, ...]
user.projects.collaborated.with_deleted #=> [#<Project ...>, ...]

# In Rails 4.0.13, with AAP 0.5.0:
user.projects.with_deleted.collaborated #=> NoMethodError: undefined local variable or method `proxy_association' for #<ActiveRecord::Relation []>
user.projects.collaborated.with_deleted #=> [#<Project ...>, ...]

I know these are all old and unmaintained versions of things so I'm not so much posting here with the expectation that it will be fixed, but for documentation purposes in case others run into it too. This GH issue seems the closest likely relative to my issue but was not fixed by e8f7fbb so probably distinct in cause.

In my case, as can be seen above, putting with_deleted last resolves the issue for me. However, whatever scope is returned by with_deleted loses its proxy context.
