+module ActionController #:nodoc:
+ # The flash provides a way to pass temporary objects between actions. Anything you place in the flash will be exposed
+ # to the very next action and then cleared out. This is a great way of doing notices and alerts, such as a create
+ # action that sets <tt>flash[:notice] = "Successfully created"</tt> before redirecting to a display action that can
+ # then expose the flash to its template. Actually, that exposure is automatically done. Example:
+ #
+ # class PostsController < ActionController::Base
+ # def create
+ # # save post
+ # flash[:notice] = "Successfully created post"
+ # redirect_to posts_path(@post)
+ # end
+ #
+ # def show
+ # # doesn't need to assign the flash notice to the template, that's done automatically
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # show.html.erb
+ # <% if flash[:notice] %>
+ # <div class="notice"><%= flash[:notice] %></div>
+ # <% end %>
+ #
+ # This example just places a string in the flash, but you can put any object in there. And of course, you can put as
+ # many as you like at a time too. Just remember: They'll be gone by the time the next action has been performed.
+ #
+ # See docs on the FlashHash class for more details about the flash.
