Documentation

Install the plugin: 
ruby script/plugin install http://svn.pluginaweek.org/trunk/type_attributes

Description
===============

In Ruby 1.8, type is a deprecated attribute replaced by the class method. However, since type is also used in class inheritance within ActiveRecord, it will not allow you to access the type attribute as defined in a model's table. Instead, it will return the actual class using the deprecated method. This bug fix accesses the actual attribute instead if type is defined as a column in the model's table.
