duplicate association names should be rejected

[solnic]

If I define two different associations having the same name, DataMapper should warn and/or reject the model.

Clifford,

Currently (recent master) DM overwrites the previously defined relationship. This is in line with ruby method redefinition behavior and also something I find intuitive. Do you mean that DM should warn/reject in case the name of the relationships match, but their type doesn’t? So that it’s fine to redefine a, say, 1:1 relationship with the same name but different options, but not allow to create an m:1 relationship with the same name? That would make sense to me. Is this what you mean?
