Ruby on rails Rails ActiveRecord：是否接受\u嵌套的\u属性\u以将父记录标记为脏记录，即使父属性不变？

我正在用iPhone应用程序同步数据，所以知道哪些记录“实际”更新了，哪些没有更新很重要。我有一个具有关联链接关联的事件模型：

在event.rb中：

has_many :related_links
accepts_nested_attributes_for :related_links, :reject_if => lambda { |a| a[:url].blank? && a[:id].blank? }, :allow_destroy => true

在我的事件表单上，当我什么都不更改时，包括RelatedLink字段，我很好。。。我的事件模型上没有更新任何内容。但如果我在我的RelatedLink字段中输入一个url，我的事件对象上的“updated_at”就会被更新

UPDATE "events" SET "updated_at" = '2011-05-30 15:27:03.228435' WHERE "events"."id" = 1791

---

这样行吗？我可以阻止它被标记为脏并被更新吗？

如果父模型的属性没有更改，则记录不被认为是脏的，并且在处更新的记录不应该更改。以此为例（Rails 3.2.3）

后模型

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessible :title, :body, :comments_attributes

  has_many :comments
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :comments
end

class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessible :body, :author
  belongs_to :post
end

1.9.3p194 :001 > p = Post.create :title => "Nested attributes", :body => "Nested attributes are awesome", :comments_attributes => [{ :body => "I agree", :author => "Bart" }]
=> #<Post id: 1, title: "Nested attributes", body: "Nested attributes are awesome", created_at: "2012-06-13 01:49:34", updated_at: "2012-06-13 01:49:34"> 

1.9.3p194 :002 > last_post = Post.last
=> #<Post id: 1, title: "Nested attributes", body: "Nested attributes are awesome", created_at: "2012-06-13 01:49:34", updated_at: "2012-06-13 01:49:34"> 

1.9.3p194 :003 > last_post.comments_attributes = [{:id => 1, :author => "Bort"}]
=> [{:id=>1, :author=>"Bort"}] 

1.9.3p194 :004 > last_post.changed?
=> false 

1.9.3p194 :005 > last_post.save

(0.7ms)  UPDATE "comments" SET "author" = 'Bort', "updated_at" = '2012-06-13 01:51:05.032862' WHERE "comments"."id" = 1

=> true
