#search_class ⇒ Object

When added as an option to acts_as_tree, search class will be used as the base from which to find tree objects. This is handy should you have a tree of objects that are of different types, but might be related through single table inheritance.

acts_as_tree :search_class => Shape

In the above example, you could have a working tree ofShape, Circle and Square types (assuming Circle and Square were subclasses of Shape). If you want to do the same thing and you don’t provide search_class, nesting mixed types will not work.

The default is self.class
