Compare with:

with_options(options)

An elegant way to factor duplication out of options passed to a series of method calls. Each method called in the block, with the block variable as the receiver, will have its options merged with the default options hash provided. Each method called on the block variable must take an options hash as its final argument.

with_options :order => 'created_at', :class_name => 'Comment' do |post|
  post.has_many :comments, :conditions => ['approved = ?', true], :dependent => :delete_all
  post.has_many :unapproved_comments, :conditions => ['approved = ?', false]
  post.has_many :all_comments
end

Can also be used with an explicit receiver:

map.with_options :controller => "people" do |people|
  people.connect "/people",     :action => "index"
  people.connect "/people/:id", :action => "show"
end

Parameters
