#attributes=(new_attributes, guard_protected_attributes = true) ⇒ Object

Overrides ActiveRecord::Base#attributes=

Because in version >=2.2.2 of ActiveRecord the behaviour in the attributes have been changed to throw a NoMethodError if the AR object don’t respond to an attribute setter, we could not use method missing to allow for our entity-attribute-value behaviour.
