Hi Christopher,
While you're dealing with model validation, I wonder if you can take a look at
this little example -- a minor failure in the current model validation:
class General(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
class Special(General):
pass
class SpecialDetail(models.Model):
parent = models.ForeignKey(Special)
target = models.ForeignKey(General)
Model validation fails (as it should), but the error message is
specialdetail: accessor for field 'parent' clashes with
'Special.specialdetail_set'
when in fact the clash is with 'General.specialdetail_set' generated by the
'target' field (and inherited by Special). Of course, when isolated like this,
it is very easy to spot where the real problem is, but when the models have a
little more content in them, this can be (and actually was) quite perplexing.
Thanks,
Shai.
