= HasManyWithArgs

An association that returns records based on arguments.

Usage:

class User

has_many_with_args :messages_from :user,

:class_name => 'Message', :conditions => { :user_id => '#{user.id}' }

end

Supports association extensions:

class User

has_many_with_args :messages_from :user,

:class_name => 'Message', :conditions => { :user_id => '#{user.id}' } do

def recent(how_many)

find :all, :order => 'created_at DESC', :limit => how_many

end

end

end

Users can now access their messages_from association with an argument.

account_owner = User.find(1) viewer = User.find(2)

account_owner.messages_from(viewer)
