shouldn't depend on HashWithIndifferentAccess #5

Closed seamusabshere closed 12 years ago

seamusabshere commented 15 years ago

hashes are used with both symbol and string keys, made possible by ActiveSupport's HashWithIndifferentAccess.

unfortunately this results in subtle gotchas like

>> hsh = HashWithIndifferentAccess.new({ :a => 1})
=> {"a"=>1}
>> hsh.has_key?(:a)
=> true
>> hsh.keys.include?(:a)
=> false

not an issue any more - rows always have string keys (has been this way for years)
