rails bug 如果表字段有名字为type的bug

  今天在做开发的时候遇到一个莫名奇妙的问题，后来才发现是表中有字段名字叫type引起的，还是在http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/7998 上发现原来是rails的一个bug，发出来，免得大家遇到相同的问题。

Scafford should detect & report error when DB field named 'type'

Reported by: Assigned to: Priority: Milestone: Component: Version: Severity: Keywords: Cc:  

dlamet	core
normal	1.x
ActiveRecord	edge
normal	field name error tINTEGER

Description ¶

When generating a scaffold, it will accept a table that has a field named type. This causes a crypic error inside base.rb:

compile error c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.3/lib/active_record/base.rb:1358: syntax error, unexpected tINTEGER Object::1

It would save a lot of people (like me) a lot of time if the scaffold code would fail with a useful error about the field name being 'type'.

I would like to second that. I just came across the exact same problem and for a newbie it can be really a cumbersome issue.

A warning should be used whenever a field name type exists. Better yet, it shouldn't be a problem at all.
