Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method in the class ActiveFedora::Associations::AssociationProxy

Instance Method Details

#count_records ⇒ Object

Returns the number of records in this collection.

That does not depend on whether the collection has already been loaded or not. The size method is the one that takes the loaded flag into account and delegates to count_records if needed.

If the collection is empty the target is set to an empty array and the loaded flag is set to true as well.
