Hint on routes requirements

rubyonrails-core
#1

Hi,
I posted a message to rails talk about a problem with requirements option in
routes, without answers:
http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk/browse_thread/thread/9f0dafe1a975de17/96dd4f2fa96ebc75#96dd4f2fa96ebc75

Could anybody please give a hint about where does Rails process :requirements
option in routes? I've been diving in ActionController code but it's big and
I can't find the right point.

Thanks.

It's a little crazy because the entire system generates a whole bunch
of code thanks to some performance optimisations in there. The
requirements are used in two places.

* write_generation on Route generates the code which matches the
parameters on the way out. From params->url that's one half of the
piece.
* write_recognition has the other half generates the conditions for
matching the routes on the way back in.

`

map.open_id_complete ‘session’, { :open_id_complete => true,

    :requirements => { :method

=> :get },

    :controller => "sessions",

    :action => "create" }

I think instead of :requirements you should use :conditions
