# wrap the action rendering for ActiveScaffold views
module ActionView #:nodoc:
  class Base
    # Adds two rendering options.
    #
    # ==render :super
    #
    # This syntax skips all template overrides and goes directly to the provided ActiveScaffold templates.
    # Useful if you want to wrap an existing template. Just call super!
    #
    # ==render :active_scaffold => #{controller.to_s}, options = {}+
    #
    # Lets you embed an ActiveScaffold by referencing the controller where it's configured.
    #
    # You may specify options[:constraints] for the embedded scaffold. These constraints have three effects:
    #   * the scaffold's only displays records matching the constraint
    #   * all new records created will be assigned the constrained values
    #   * constrained columns will be hidden (they're pretty boring at this point)
    #
    # You may also specify options[:conditions] for the embedded scaffold. These only do 1/3 of what
    # constraints do (they only limit search results). Any format accepted by ActiveRecord::Base.find is valid.
    #
    # Defining options[:label] lets you completely customize the list title for the embedded scaffold.
