Compare with:

render_to_string(*args, &block)

Raw rendering of a template to a string.

It is similar to render, except that it does not set the response_body and it should be guaranteed to always return a string.

If a component extends the semantics of response_body (as ActionController extends it to be anything that responds to the method each), this method needs to be overridden in order to still return a string.

Parameters

args rest
block block
