在Rails中的常量上缓存模型实例时出现问题

我在Rails应用程序的一个模型上使用单表继承(STI),在常量上存储模型对象时遇到问题。我已将问题隔离到一个示例项目中,并将其提交给GitHub: http://github.com/fcoury/rails-sti-caching

/config/initializers/ 目录)并使其保持恒定:

MUSIC_CACHE = Hash.new
Music.all.each { |m| MUSIC_CACHE[m.id] = m }

class MusicsController < ApplicationController
  def index
    require 'pp'
    pp MUSIC_CACHE
    @debug = []
    MUSIC_CACHE.each_pair do |k, v|
      music = Music.find(k)
      d "Object for Music.find(#{k})  => class: #{music.class} - class obj_id: #{music.class.object_id} - #{music.inspect}"
      d "Object for MUSIC_CACHE[#{k}] => class: #{v.class} - class obj_id: #{v.class.object_id} - #{v.inspect}"

      begin
        d "  - Music.is_a?(Media) => #{v.is_a?(Media)}"
        d "  - Try to call name   => #{v.name}"
      rescue
        d "*** Error raised:\n#{$!}"
      end
    end

    @musics = Music.all
  end

  def d(s)
    puts s
    @debug << s
  end
end

以及随之而来的观点:

<h1 id="music">Music</h1>

<ul>
  <% for m in @musics %>
  <li><%= m.name %> - <%= m.file %></li>
  <% end %>
</ul>

<pre><%=h @debug.join("\n") %></pre>

<pre> 标签如下:

*** Error raised:
You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.include?

有人知道这个错误背后的原因吗?
