# Summary:
# String.random in a STI base class works, but doesn't work with inherited classes
#
# Detailed description
#
# Love the plugin, but seem to have found a bug with the latest FixtureReplacemnt2.
#
# There appears to be a problem when a base STI class in example_data has a random string.
# The derived STI classes do not get a fresh random string with each call.
#
# Eg.
# Given the below example_data.rb, repeated new_user/create_user will work fine.
# Each call creating a new object with a new random string.
#
# However the STI classes do not work as expected...
# new_player/create_player will always return an object with the same random string
#
#
#   attributes_for :user do |u|
#     u.first_name = "First_name_" + String.random
#     u.email = "#{u.first_name}@aaa.com"
#   end
#
#   attributes_for :player, :from => :user, :class => Player
#
#
# Thanks
# Andy
