    # Scaffolding is a way to quickly put an Active Record class online by providing a series of standardized actions
    # for listing, showing, creating, updating, and destroying objects of the class. These standardized actions come
    # with both controller logic and default templates that through introspection already know which fields to display
    # and which input types to use. Example:
    #
    #  class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
    #    scaffold :entry
    #  end
    #
    # This tiny piece of code will add all of the following methods to the controller:
    #
    #  class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
    #    verify :method => :post, :only => [ :destroy, :create, :update ],
    #           :redirect_to => { :action => :list }
    #
    #    def index
    #      list
    #    end
    #
    #    def list
    #      @entries = Entry.find(:all)
    #      render_scaffold "list"
    #    end
    #
    #    def show
    #      @entry = Entry.find(params[:id])
    #      render_scaffold
    #    end
    #
    #    def destroy
    #      Entry.find(params[:id]).destroy
    #      redirect_to :action => "list"
    #    end
    #
    #    def new
    #      @entry = Entry.new
    #      render_scaffold
    #    end
    #
    #    def create
    #      @entry = Entry.new(params[:entry])
    #      if @entry.save
    #        flash[:notice] = "Entry was successfully created"
    #        redirect_to :action => "list"
    #      else
    #        render_scaffold('new')
    #      end
    #    end
    #
    #    def edit
    #      @entry = Entry.find(params[:id])
    #      render_scaffold
    #    end
    #
    #    def update
    #      @entry = Entry.find(params[:id])
    #      @entry.attributes = params[:entry]
    #
    #      if @entry.save
    #        flash[:notice] = "Entry was successfully updated"

    #      end
    #    end

    # The <tt>render_scaffold</tt> method will first check to see if you've made your own template (like "weblog/show.rhtml" for
    # the show action) and if not, then render the generic template for that action. This gives you the possibility of using the
    # scaffold while you're building your specific application. Start out with a totally generic setup, then replace one template
    # and one action at a time while relying on the rest of the scaffolded templates and actions.
    module ClassMethods
      # Adds a swath of generic CRUD actions to the controller. The +model_id+ is automatically converted into a class name unless
      # one is specifically provide through <tt>options[:class_name]</tt>. So <tt>scaffold :post</tt> would use Post as the class
      # and @post/@posts for the instance variables.
      #
      # It's possible to use more than one scaffold in a single controller by specifying <tt>options[:suffix] = true</tt>. This will
      # make <tt>scaffold :post, :suffix => true</tt> use method names like list_post, show_post, and create_post
      # instead of just list, show, and post. If suffix is used, then no index method is added.
