class Object
|
|
# Returns +value+ after yielding +value+ to the block. This simplifies the
|
|
# process of constructing an object, performing work on the object, and then
|
|
# returning the object from a method. It is a Ruby-ized realization of the K
|
|
# combinator, courtesy of Mikael Brockman.

|
# ==== Examples
|
|
#
|
|
# # Without returning
|
|
# def foo
|
|
# values = []
|
|
# values << "bar"
|
|
# values << "baz"
|
|
# return values
|
|
# end
|
|
#
|
|
# foo # => ['bar', 'baz']
|
|
#
|
|
# # returning with a local variable
|
|
# def foo
|
|
# returning values = [] do
|
|
# values << 'bar'
|
|
# values << 'baz'
|
|
# end
|
|
# end
|
|
#
|
|
# foo # => ['bar', 'baz']
|
|
#
|
|
# # returning with a block argument
|
|
# def foo
|
|
# returning [] do |values|
|
|
# values << 'bar'
|
|
# values << 'baz'
|
|
# end

# An elegant way to factor duplication out of options passed to a series of
|
|
# method calls. Each method called in the block, with the block variable as
|
|
# the receiver, will have its options merged with the default +options+ hash
|
|
# provided. Each method called on the block variable must take an options
|
|
# hash as its final argument.
|
|
#
|
|
# with_options :order => 'created_at', :class_name => 'Comment' do |post|
|
|
# post.has_many :comments, :conditions => ['approved = ?', true], :dependent => :delete_all
|
|
# post.has_many :unapproved_comments, :conditions => ['approved = ?', false]
|
|
# post.has_many :all_comments
|
|
# end
|
|
#
|
|
# Can also be used with an explicit receiver:
|
|
#
|
|
# map.with_options :controller => "people" do |people|
|
|
# people.connect "/people", :action => "index"
|
|
# people.connect "/people/:id", :action => "show"
|
|
# end
|
|

# A duck-type assistant method. For example, Active Support extends Date
|
|
# to define an acts_like_date? method, and extends Time to define
|
|
# acts_like_time?. As a result, we can do "x.acts_like?(:time)" and
|
|
# "x.acts_like?(:date)" to do duck-type-safe comparisons, since classes that
|
|
# we want to act like Time simply need to define an acts_like_time? method.
