#23467 closed Bug

Inconsistent behavior when filtering by inherited models when using a proxy model — at Version 1

Reported by: Luis A. Arce Owned by: nobody
Component: Database layer (models, ORM) Version: 1.6

Description (last modified by Luis A. Arce)

Having the following scenario:

import django.db.models  as db_models

class ParentModel(db_models.Model):
    pass

class ChildModel(ParentModel):
    pass

class ParentProxyModel(ParentModel):
    pass

    class Meta:
        proxy=True

I can filter the ParentModel in terms of existing inheriting children, but not ParentProxyModel. An example:

Python 2.7.5 (default, Jun 25 2014, 10:19:55) 
[GCC 4.8.2 20131212 (Red Hat 4.8.2-7)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)

>>> a = ParentModel.objects.create()
>>> b = ChildModel.objects.create()

>>> ParentModel.objects.filter(childmodel=None)
[<ParentModel: ParentModel object>]

>>> ParentProxyModel.objects.filter(childmodel=None)
