[1602]

Could you please show some isolated test case?

There was an issue before about Boolean type not updating properly. In
addition to that, even String type does not update consistently.

For example, we want to update one field F1. It is not updated unless in
addition to F1 we make a dummy change to at least one another field (for
example, F2). For some fields such trick is not necessary, for some you
need it.

I am having trouble determining what is the reason behind this kind of
behavior. Would be great if you could shed some light on this.

All fields are String, database is Mongoose. Thank you.

Alright, here are the main ingredients:

Model declaration:
Privilege = describe 'Privilege', () ->
property 'slug', String, index : true
property 'name', String
property 'activated', String, default: "no"

update inside a controller:
action 'update', ->
@privilege.updateAttributes body, (err) =>
if !err
flash 'info', 'Privilege updated'
redirect path_to.admin_privilege(@Privilege)
else
flash 'error', 'Privilege can not be updated'
@title = 'Edit privilege details'
render 'edit'

_form.jade partial within views:
.clearfix
!= form.label("name")
.input
!= form.input("name")
!= form.label("slug")
.input
!= form.input("slug")
!= form.label("activated")
.input
- if (privilege.activated === "yes")
input(type="checkbox", name="activated", value="yes", checked)
- else
input(type="checkbox", name="activated", value="yes")

The only field that has trouble updating under this setup is 'activated', to update it I need to change say 'name' together with it. Changing just 'activated' does not do the trick.

This setup works fine under driver : memory.

Please let me know if you need more info.
