module InheritedResources
  # Shallow provides a functionality that goes on pair with Rails' shallow.
  # It is very similar to "optional" but it actually finds all the parents
  # resources instead of leaving them blank. Consider the following example:
  #
  #   belongs_to :post, :shallow => true do
  #     belongs_to :comment
  #   end
  #
  # When accessed as /comments/1, Inherited Resources will automatically get
  # the post resource so both objects are actually accessible through the views.
  #
  # However, when using optional, Inherited Resources wouldn't actually bother
  # with finding the parent object.
