    # Creates named routes for implementing verb-oriented controllers. This is
    # useful for implementing REST API's, where a single resource has different
    # behavior based on the HTTP verb (method) used to access it.
    # 
    # Example:
    #
    #   map.resources :messages 
    #
    #   class MessagesController < ActionController::Base
    #     # GET messages_url
    #     def index
    #       # return all messages
    #     end
    # 
    #     # GET new_message_url
    #     def new
    #       # return an HTML form for describing a new message
    #     end
    # 
    #     # POST messages_url
    #     def create
    #       # create a new message
    #     end
    # 
    #     # GET message_url(:id => 1)
    #     def show
    #       # find and return a specific message
    #     end
    # 
    #     # GET edit_message_url(:id => 1)
    #     def edit
    #       # return an HTML form for editing a specific message
    #     end
    # 
    #     # PUT message_url(:id => 1)
    #     def update
    #       # find and update a specific message
    #     end
    # 
    #     # DELETE message_url(:id => 1)
    #     def destroy
    #       # delete a specific message
    #     end
    #   end
    # 
    # The #resources method sets HTTP method restrictions on the routes it generates. For example, making an
    # HTTP POST on <tt>new_message_url</tt> will raise a RoutingError exception. The default route in 
    # <tt>config/routes.rb</tt> overrides this and allows invalid HTTP methods for resource routes.
    # 
    # Along with the routes themselves, #resources generates named routes for use in
    # controllers and views. <tt>map.resources :messages</tt> produces the following named routes and helpers:
    # 
    #   Named Route   Helpers
    #   messages      messages_url, hash_for_messages_url, 
    #                 messages_path, hash_for_messages_path
    #   message       message_url(id), hash_for_message_url(id), 
    #                 message_path(id), hash_for_message_path(id)
    #   new_message   new_message_url, hash_for_new_message_url, 
    #                 new_message_path, hash_for_new_message_path
    #   edit_message  edit_message_url(id), hash_for_edit_message_url(id),
    #                 edit_message_path(id), hash_for_edit_message_path(id)
    #
    # You can use these helpers instead of #url_for or methods that take #url_for parameters:
    # 
    #   redirect_to :controller => 'messages', :action => 'index'
    #   # becomes
    #   redirect_to messages_url
    #
    #   <%= link_to "edit this message", :controller => 'messages', :action => 'edit', :id => @message.id %>
    #   # becomes
    #   <%= link_to "edit this message", edit_message_url(@message) # calls @message.id automatically
    #
    # Since web browsers don't support the PUT and DELETE verbs, you will need to add a parameter '_method' to your
    # form tags. The form helpers make this a little easier. For an update form with a <tt>@message</tt> object:
    #
    #   <%= form_tag message_path(@message), :method => :put %>
    #   
    # or 
    #   
    #   <% form_for :message, @message, message_path(@message), :html => {:method => :put} do |f| %>
    # 
    # The #resources method accepts various options, too, to customize the resulting
    # routes:
    # * <tt>:controller</tt> -- specify the controller name for the routes.
    # * <tt>:singular</tt> -- specify the singular name used in the member routes.
    # * <tt>:path_prefix</tt> -- set a prefix to the routes with required route variables.
    #   Weblog comments usually belong to a post, so you might use resources like:
    #
    #     map.resources :articles
    #     map.resources :comments, :path_prefix => '/articles/:article_id'
    #
    #   You can nest resources calls to set this automatically:
    #
    #     map.resources :articles do |article|
    #       article.resources :comments
    #     end
    # 
    # * <tt>:name_prefix</tt> -- define a prefix for all generated routes, usually ending in an underscore.
    #   Use this if you have named routes that may clash.
    #
    #     map.resources :tags, :path_prefix => '/books/:book_id', :name_prefix => 'book_'
    #     map.resources :tags, :path_prefix => '/toys/:toy_id',   :name_prefix => 'toy_'
    #
    # * <tt>:collection</tt> -- add named routes for other actions that operate on the collection.
    #   Takes a hash of <tt>#{action} => #{method}</tt>, where method is <tt>:get</tt>/<tt>:post</tt>/<tt>:put</tt>/<tt>:delete</tt>
    #   or <tt>:any</tt> if the method does not matter.  These routes map to a URL like /messages;rss, with a route of rss_messages_url.
    # * <tt>:member</tt> -- same as :collection, but for actions that operate on a specific member.
    # * <tt>:new</tt> -- same as :collection, but for actions that operate on the new resource action.
    #
    # If <tt>map.resources</tt> is called with multiple resources, they all get the same options applied.
    #
    # Examples:
    # 
    #   map.resources :messages, :path_prefix => "/thread/:thread_id"
    #   # --> GET /thread/7/messages/1
    #  
    #   map.resources :messages, :collection => { :rss => :get }
    #   # --> GET /messages;rss (maps to the #rss action)
    #   #     also adds a named route called "rss_messages"
    # 
    #   map.resources :messages, :member => { :mark => :post }
    #   # --> POST /messages/1;mark (maps to the #mark action)
    #   #     also adds a named route called "mark_message"
    # 
    #   map.resources :messages, :new => { :preview => :post }
    #   # --> POST /messages/new;preview (maps to the #preview action)
    #   #     also adds a named route called "preview_new_message"
    # 
    #   map.resources :messages, :new => { :new => :any, :preview => :post }
    #   # --> POST /messages/new;preview (maps to the #preview action)
    #   #     also adds a named route called "preview_new_message"
    #   # --> /messages/new can be invoked via any request method
    # 
    #   map.resources :messages, :controller => "categories",
    #         :path_prefix => "/category/:category_id",
    #         :name_prefix => "category_"
    #   # --> GET /categories/7/messages/1
