#validate(*args) ⇒ Object

FIXME - this is a seedy hack and i blame the entire contents of active_record/autosave_association.rb for it being necessary.

def validate(*args)
  return false unless WhyValidationsSuckIn96::ActiveRecord.warn_on_deprecation
  callstack = caller
  warn(<<-EOW.gsub(/^\s{10}/, ""))
    This is a friendly message from WhyValidationsSuckIn96. #{self.inspect} called 'validate' which is a
    deprecated method. The arguments given were:
    
      #{args.inspect} - #{block_given? ? 'block given' : 'no block given'}
      
    and the caller was:
    
      #{callstack.first}
    
    If these warnings are coming from a call to 'add_autosave_association_callbacks', do not be alarmed, as
    WhyValidationsSuckIn96 has implemented its own versions of the necessary validation callbacks.
      
    These warnings can be silenced by setting 'WhyValidationsSuckIn96::ActiveRecord.warn_on_deprecation' to false.
    You will now be returned to your regularly scheduled programming.
  EOW
  false
