module ActionView
# There's also a convenience method for rendering sub templates within the current controller that depends on a single object
# (we call this kind of sub templates for partials). It relies on the fact that partials should follow the naming convention of being
# prefixed with an underscore -- as to separate them from regular templates that could be rendered on their own. In the template for
# Advertiser#buy, we could have:
#
# <% for ad in @advertisements %>
# <%= render_partial "ad", ad %>
# <% end %>
#
# This would render "advertiser/_ad.rhtml" and pass the local variable +ad+ to the template for display.
#
# == Rendering a collection of partials
#
# The example of partial use describes a familar pattern where a template needs to iterate over an array and render a sub
# template for each of the elements. This pattern has been implemented as a single method that accepts an array and renders
# a partial by the same name as the elements contained within. So the three-lined example in "Using partials" can be rewritten
# with a single line:
#
# <%= render_collection_of_partials "ad", @advertisements %>
#
# This will render "advertiser/_ad.rhtml" and pass the local variable +ad+ to the template for display. An iteration counter
# will automatically be made available to the template with a name of the form +partial_name_counter+. In the case of the
# example above, the template would be fed +ad_counter+.
#
# == Rendering shared partials
#
# Two controllers can share a set of partials and render them like this:
#
# <%= render_partial "advertisement/ad", ad %>
#
# This will render the partial "advertisement/_ad.rhtml" regardless of which controller this is being called from.
