The +after_find+ callback will be called whenever Active Record loads a record from the database. +after_find+ is called before +after_initialize+ if both are defined.
-The +after_initialize+ and +after_find+ callbacks are a bit different from the others. They have no +before_*+ counterparts, and they are registered simply by defining them as regular methods with predefined names. If you try to register +after_initialize+ or +after_find+ using macro-style class methods, they will just be ignored. This behavior is due to performance reasons, since +after_initialize+ and +after_find+ will both be called for each record found in the database, which would otherwise significantly slow down the queries.
+The +after_initialize+ and +after_find+ callbacks have no +before_*+ counterparts, but they can be registered just like the other Active Record callbacks.
<ruby>
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
- def after_initialize

puts "You have initialized an object!"
end
- def after_find
+ after_find do |user|
puts "You have found an object!"
