end

#relation_class ⇒ String Also known as: klass

The class of the association object(s).

This method returns the class instance corresponding to relation_class_name, resolved relative to the host document class.

If the class does not exist, this method raises NameError. This can happen because the target class has not yet been defined. Note that polymorphic associations generally do not have a well defined target class because the target class can change from one object to another, and calling this method on a polymorphic association will generally fail with a NameError or produce misleading results (if a class does happen to be defined with the same name as the association name).

def relation_class

    cls_name = @options[:class_name] || ActiveSupport::Inflector.classify(name)
    resolve_name(inverse_class, cls_name)
  end
end

#relation_class_name ⇒ String Also known as: class_name

Note:

The return value of this method should not be used to determine whether two associations have the same target class, because the return value is not always a fully qualified class name. To compare classes, retrieve the class instance of the association target using the relation_class method.

The class name, possibly unqualified or

prefixed, of the association

object(s).

This method returns the class name as it is used in the association definition. If :class_name option is given in the association, the exact value of that option is returned here. If :class_name option is not given, the name of the class is calculated from association name but is not resolved to the actual class.

The class name returned by this method may not correspond to a defined class, either because the corresponding class has not been loaded yet, or because the association references a non-existent class altogether. To obtain the association class, use relation_class method.
