Instance methods used to implement the associations support.
The currently cached associations. A hash with the keys being the association name symbols and the values being the associated object or nil (many_to_one), or the array of associated objects (*_to_many).
# File lib/sequel/model/associations.rb, line 2240 def associations @associations ||= {} end
Freeze the associations cache when freezing the object. Note that retrieving associations after freezing will still work in most cases, but the associations will not be cached in the association cache.
# File lib/sequel/model/associations.rb, line 2247 def freeze associations super associations.freeze self end
