From: Peter Alvin Date: 2008-09-23T20:50:13+09:00 Subject: Optionally pass a parameter? In general, how do you optionally pass an optional qualifier to a Ruby def? For example, for some model in Rails, like this: MyDBClass.find(:all, ... How do I optionally add a condition? This generates a syntax error: some_test ? :conditions => "id=100" : nil, I guess it doesn't like that I only want to add the :conditions occasionally. What is the Ruby best practice or idiom for this? Pete -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
