class Hash
- # Allows for reverse merging two hashes where the keys in the calling hash take precedence over those
- # in the <tt>other_hash</tt>. This is particularly useful for initializing an option hash with default values:
+ # Merges the caller into +other_hash+. For example,
#
- # def setup(options = {})
- # options.reverse_merge! :size => 25, :velocity => 10
- # end
+ # options = options.reverse_merge(:size => 25, :velocity => 10)
#
- # Using <tt>merge</tt>, the above example would look as follows:
+ # is equivalent to
#
- # def setup(options = {})
- # { :size => 25, :velocity => 10 }.merge(options)
- # end
+ # options = {:size => 25, :velocity => 10}.merge(options)
#
- # The default <tt>:size</tt> and <tt>:velocity</tt> are only set if the +options+ hash passed in doesn't already
- # have the respective key.
+ # This is particularly useful for initializing an options hash
+ # with default values.
def reverse_merge(other_hash)
other_hash.merge(self)
end
- # Performs the opposite of <tt>merge</tt>, with the keys and values from the first hash taking precedence over the second.
- # Modifies the receiver in place.
+ # Destructive +reverse_merge+.
def reverse_merge!(other_hash)
# right wins if there is no left
