-    # Associations are a set of macro-like class methods for tying objects together through
-    # foreign keys. They express relationships like "Project has one Project Manager"
-    # or "Project belongs to a Portfolio". Each macro adds a number of methods to the
-    # class which are specialized according to the collection or association symbol and the
-    # options hash. It works much the same way as Ruby's own <tt>attr*</tt>
-    # methods.
-    #
-    #   class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to              :portfolio
-    #     has_one                 :project_manager
-    #     has_many                :milestones
-    #     has_and_belongs_to_many :categories
-    #   end
-    #
-    # The project class now has the following methods (and more) to ease the traversal and
-    # manipulation of its relationships:
-    # * <tt>Project#portfolio, Project#portfolio=(portfolio), Project#portfolio.nil?</tt>
-    # * <tt>Project#project_manager, Project#project_manager=(project_manager), Project#project_manager.nil?,</tt>
-    # * <tt>Project#milestones.empty?, Project#milestones.size, Project#milestones, Project#milestones<<(milestone),</tt>
-    #   <tt>Project#milestones.delete(milestone), Project#milestones.find(milestone_id), Project#milestones.all(options),</tt>
-    #   <tt>Project#milestones.build, Project#milestones.create</tt>
-    # * <tt>Project#categories.empty?, Project#categories.size, Project#categories, Project#categories<<(category1),</tt>
-    #   <tt>Project#categories.delete(category1)</tt>
-    #
-    # === Overriding generated methods
-    #
-    # Association methods are generated in a module that is included into the model class,
-    # which allows you to easily override with your own methods and call the original
-    # generated method with +super+. For example:
-    #
-    #   class Car < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :owner
-    #     belongs_to :old_owner
-    #     def owner=(new_owner)
-    #       self.old_owner = self.owner
-    #       super
-    #     end
-    #   end
-    #
-    # If your model class is <tt>Project</tt>, the module is
-    # named <tt>Project::GeneratedFeatureMethods</tt>. The GeneratedFeatureMethods module is
-    # included in the model class immediately after the (anonymous) generated attributes methods
-    # module, meaning an association will override the methods for an attribute with the same name.
-    #
-    # === A word of warning
-    #
-    # Don't create associations that have the same name as instance methods of
-    # <tt>ActiveRecord::Base</tt>. Since the association adds a method with that name to
-    # its model, it will override the inherited method and break things.
-    # For instance, +attributes+ and +connection+ would be bad choices for association names.

-    # == Cardinality and associations
-    #
-    # Active Record associations can be used to describe one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many
-    # relationships between models. Each model uses an association to describe its role in
-    # the relation. The +belongs_to+ association is always used in the model that has
-    # the foreign key.
-    #
-    # === One-to-one
-    #
-    # Use +has_one+ in the base, and +belongs_to+ in the associated model.
-    #
-    #   class Employee < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_one :office
-    #   end
-    #   class Office < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :employee    # foreign key - employee_id
-    #   end
-    #
-    # === One-to-many
-    #
-    # Use +has_many+ in the base, and +belongs_to+ in the associated model.
-    #
-    #   class Manager < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :employees
-    #   end
-    #   class Employee < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :manager     # foreign key - manager_id
-    #   end
-    #
-    # === Many-to-many
-    #
-    # There are two ways to build a many-to-many relationship.
-    #
-    # The first way uses a +has_many+ association with the <tt>:through</tt> option and a join model, so
-    # there are two stages of associations.
-    #
-    #   class Assignment < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :programmer  # foreign key - programmer_id
-    #     belongs_to :project     # foreign key - project_id
-    #   end
-    #   class Programmer < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :assignments
-    #     has_many :projects, :through => :assignments
-    #   end
-    #   class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :assignments
-    #     has_many :programmers, :through => :assignments
-    #   end
-    #
-    # For the second way, use +has_and_belongs_to_many+ in both models. This requires a join table
-    # that has no corresponding model or primary key.
-    #
-    #   class Programmer < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_and_belongs_to_many :projects       # foreign keys in the join table
-    #   end
-    #   class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_and_belongs_to_many :programmers    # foreign keys in the join table
-    #   end
-    #
-    # Choosing which way to build a many-to-many relationship is not always simple.
-    # If you need to work with the relationship model as its own entity,
-    # use <tt>has_many :through</tt>. Use +has_and_belongs_to_many+ when working with legacy schemas or when
-    # you never work directly with the relationship itself.
-    #
-    # == Is it a +belongs_to+ or +has_one+ association?
-    #
-    # Both express a 1-1 relationship. The difference is mostly where to place the foreign
-    # key, which goes on the table for the class declaring the +belongs_to+ relationship.
-    #
-    #   class User < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     # I reference an account.
-    #     belongs_to :account
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     # One user references me.
-    #     has_one :user
-    #   end
-    #
-    # The tables for these classes could look something like:
-    #
-    #   CREATE TABLE users (
-    #     id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
-    #     account_id int(11) default NULL,
-    #     name varchar default NULL,
-    #     PRIMARY KEY  (id)
-    #   )
-    #
-    #   CREATE TABLE accounts (
-    #     id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
-    #     name varchar default NULL,
-    #     PRIMARY KEY  (id)
-    #   )
-    #
-    # == Unsaved objects and associations
-    #
-    # You can manipulate objects and associations before they are saved to the database, but
-    # there is some special behavior you should be aware of, mostly involving the saving of
-    # associated objects.
-    #
-    # You can set the :autosave option on a <tt>has_one</tt>, <tt>belongs_to</tt>,
-    # <tt>has_many</tt>, or <tt>has_and_belongs_to_many</tt> association. Setting it
-    # to +true+ will _always_ save the members, whereas setting it to +false+ will
-    # _never_ save the members. More details about :autosave option is available at
-    # autosave_association.rb .
-    #
-    # === One-to-one associations
-    #
-    # * Assigning an object to a +has_one+ association automatically saves that object and
-    #   the object being replaced (if there is one), in order to update their foreign
-    #   keys - except if the parent object is unsaved (<tt>new_record? == true</tt>).
-    # * If either of these saves fail (due to one of the objects being invalid), an
-    #   <tt>ActiveRecord::RecordNotSaved</tt> exception is raised and the assignment is
-    #   cancelled.
-    # * If you wish to assign an object to a +has_one+ association without saving it,
-    #   use the <tt>build_association</tt> method (documented below). The object being
-    #   replaced will still be saved to update its foreign key.
-    # * Assigning an object to a +belongs_to+ association does not save the object, since
-    #   the foreign key field belongs on the parent. It does not save the parent either.
-    #
-    # === Collections
-    #
-    # * Adding an object to a collection (+has_many+ or +has_and_belongs_to_many+) automatically
-    #   saves that object, except if the parent object (the owner of the collection) is not yet
-    #   stored in the database.
-    # * If saving any of the objects being added to a collection (via <tt>push</tt> or similar)
-    #   fails, then <tt>push</tt> returns +false+.
-    # * If saving fails while replacing the collection (via <tt>association=</tt>), an
-    #   <tt>ActiveRecord::RecordNotSaved</tt> exception is raised and the assignment is
-    #   cancelled.
-    # * You can add an object to a collection without automatically saving it by using the
-    #   <tt>collection.build</tt> method (documented below).
-    # * All unsaved (<tt>new_record? == true</tt>) members of the collection are automatically
-    #   saved when the parent is saved.
-    #
-    # === Association callbacks
-    #
-    # Similar to the normal callbacks that hook into the life cycle of an Active Record object,
-    # you can also define callbacks that get triggered when you add an object to or remove an
-    # object from an association collection.
-    #
-    #   class Project
-    #     has_and_belongs_to_many :developers, :after_add => :evaluate_velocity
-    #
-    #     def evaluate_velocity(developer)
-    #       ...
-    #     end
-    #   end
-    #
-    # It's possible to stack callbacks by passing them as an array. Example:
-    #
-    #   class Project
-    #     has_and_belongs_to_many :developers,
-    #                             :after_add => [:evaluate_velocity, Proc.new { |p, d| p.shipping_date = Time.now}]
-    #   end
-    #
-    # Possible callbacks are: +before_add+, +after_add+, +before_remove+ and +after_remove+.
-    #
-    # Should any of the +before_add+ callbacks throw an exception, the object does not get
-    # added to the collection. Same with the +before_remove+ callbacks; if an exception is
-    # thrown the object doesn't get removed.
-    #
-    # === Association extensions
-    #
-    # The proxy objects that control the access to associations can be extended through anonymous
-    # modules. This is especially beneficial for adding new finders, creators, and other
-    # factory-type methods that are only used as part of this association.
-    #
-    #   class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :people do
-    #       def find_or_create_by_name(name)
-    #         first_name, last_name = name.split(" ", 2)
-    #         find_or_create_by_first_name_and_last_name(first_name, last_name)
-    #       end
-    #     end
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   person = Account.first.people.find_or_create_by_name("David Heinemeier Hansson")
-    #   person.first_name # => "David"
-    #   person.last_name  # => "Heinemeier Hansson"
-    #
-    # If you need to share the same extensions between many associations, you can use a named
-    # extension module.
-    #
-    #   module FindOrCreateByNameExtension
-    #     def find_or_create_by_name(name)
-    #       first_name, last_name = name.split(" ", 2)
-    #       find_or_create_by_first_name_and_last_name(first_name, last_name)
-    #     end
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :people, :extend => FindOrCreateByNameExtension
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Company < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :people, :extend => FindOrCreateByNameExtension
-    #   end
-    #
-    # If you need to use multiple named extension modules, you can specify an array of modules
-    # with the <tt>:extend</tt> option.
-    # In the case of name conflicts between methods in the modules, methods in modules later
-    # in the array supercede those earlier in the array.
-    #
-    #   class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :people, :extend => [FindOrCreateByNameExtension, FindRecentExtension]
-    #   end
-    #
-    # Some extensions can only be made to work with knowledge of the association's internals.
-    # Extensions can access relevant state using the following methods (where +items+ is the
-    # name of the association):
-    #
-    # * <tt>record.association(:items).owner</tt> - Returns the object the association is part of.
-    # * <tt>record.association(:items).reflection</tt> - Returns the reflection object that describes the association.
-    # * <tt>record.association(:items).target</tt> - Returns the associated object for +belongs_to+ and +has_one+, or
-    #   the collection of associated objects for +has_many+ and +has_and_belongs_to_many+.
-    #
-    # However, inside the actual extension code, you will not have access to the <tt>record</tt> as
-    # above. In this case, you can access <tt>proxy_association</tt>. For example,
-    # <tt>record.association(:items)</tt> and <tt>record.items.proxy_association</tt> will return
-    # the same object, allowing you to make calls like <tt>proxy_association.owner</tt> inside
-    # association extensions.
-    #
-    # === Association Join Models
-    #
-    # Has Many associations can be configured with the <tt>:through</tt> option to use an
-    # explicit join model to retrieve the data. This operates similarly to a
-    # +has_and_belongs_to_many+ association. The advantage is that you're able to add validations,
-    # callbacks, and extra attributes on the join model. Consider the following schema:
-    #
-    #   class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :authorships
-    #     has_many :books, :through => :authorships
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Authorship < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :author
-    #     belongs_to :book
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   @author = Author.first
-    #   @author.authorships.collect { |a| a.book } # selects all books that the author's authorships belong to
-    #   @author.books                              # selects all books by using the Authorship join model
-    #
-    # You can also go through a +has_many+ association on the join model:
-    #
-    #   class Firm < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many   :clients
-    #     has_many   :invoices, :through => :clients
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Client < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :firm
-    #     has_many   :invoices
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :client
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   @firm = Firm.first
-    #   @firm.clients.collect { |c| c.invoices }.flatten # select all invoices for all clients of the firm
-    #   @firm.invoices                                   # selects all invoices by going through the Client join model
-    #
-    # Similarly you can go through a +has_one+ association on the join model:
-    #
-    #   class Group < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many   :users
-    #     has_many   :avatars, :through => :users
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class User < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :group
-    #     has_one    :avatar
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Avatar < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :user
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   @group = Group.first
-    #   @group.users.collect { |u| u.avatar }.flatten # select all avatars for all users in the group
-    #   @group.avatars                                # selects all avatars by going through the User join model.
-    #
-    # An important caveat with going through +has_one+ or +has_many+ associations on the
-    # join model is that these associations are *read-only*. For example, the following
-    # would not work following the previous example:
-    #
-    #   @group.avatars << Avatar.new   # this would work if User belonged_to Avatar rather than the other way around
-    #   @group.avatars.delete(@group.avatars.last)  # so would this
-    #
-    # If you are using a +belongs_to+ on the join model, it is a good idea to set the
-    # <tt>:inverse_of</tt> option on the +belongs_to+, which will mean that the following example
-    # works correctly (where <tt>tags</tt> is a +has_many+ <tt>:through</tt> association):
-    #
-    #   @post = Post.first
-    #   @tag = @post.tags.build :name => "ruby"
-    #   @tag.save
-    #
-    # The last line ought to save the through record (a <tt>Taggable</tt>). This will only work if the
-    # <tt>:inverse_of</tt> is set:
-    #
-    #   class Taggable < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :post
-    #     belongs_to :tag, :inverse_of => :taggings
-    #   end
-    #
-    # === Nested Associations
-    #
-    # You can actually specify *any* association with the <tt>:through</tt> option, including an
-    # association which has a <tt>:through</tt> option itself. For example:
-    #
-    #   class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :posts
-    #     has_many :comments, :through => :posts
-    #     has_many :commenters, :through => :comments
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :comments
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :commenter
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   @author = Author.first
-    #   @author.commenters # => People who commented on posts written by the author
-    #
-    # An equivalent way of setting up this association this would be:
-    #
-    #   class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :posts
-    #     has_many :commenters, :through => :posts
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :comments
-    #     has_many :commenters, :through => :comments
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :commenter
-    #   end
-    #
-    # When using nested association, you will not be able to modify the association because there
-    # is not enough information to know what modification to make. For example, if you tried to
-    # add a <tt>Commenter</tt> in the example above, there would be no way to tell how to set up the
-    # intermediate <tt>Post</tt> and <tt>Comment</tt> objects.
-    #
-    # === Polymorphic Associations
-    #
-    # Polymorphic associations on models are not restricted on what types of models they
-    # can be associated with. Rather, they specify an interface that a +has_many+ association
-    # must adhere to.
-    #
-    #   class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :assets, :as => :attachable         # The :as option specifies the polymorphic interface to use.
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   @asset.attachable = @post
-    #
-    # This works by using a type column in addition to a foreign key to specify the associated
-    # record. In the Asset example, you'd need an +attachable_id+ integer column and an
-    # +attachable_type+ string column.
-    #
-    # Using polymorphic associations in combination with single table inheritance (STI) is
-    # a little tricky. In order for the associations to work as expected, ensure that you
-    # store the base model for the STI models in the type column of the polymorphic
-    # association. To continue with the asset example above, suppose there are guest posts
-    # and member posts that use the posts table for STI. In this case, there must be a +type+
-    # column in the posts table.
-    #
-    #   class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true
-    #
-    #     def attachable_type=(sType)
-    #        super(sType.to_s.classify.constantize.base_class.to_s)
-    #     end
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     # because we store "Post" in attachable_type now :dependent => :destroy will work
-    #     has_many :assets, :as => :attachable, :dependent => :destroy
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class GuestPost < Post
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   class MemberPost < Post
-    #   end
-    #
-    # == Caching
-    #
-    # All of the methods are built on a simple caching principle that will keep the result
-    # of the last query around unless specifically instructed not to. The cache is even
-    # shared across methods to make it even cheaper to use the macro-added methods without
-    # worrying too much about performance at the first go.
-    #
-    #   project.milestones             # fetches milestones from the database
-    #   project.milestones.size        # uses the milestone cache
-    #   project.milestones.empty?      # uses the milestone cache
-    #   project.milestones(true).size  # fetches milestones from the database
-    #   project.milestones             # uses the milestone cache
-    #
-    # == Eager loading of associations
-    #
-    # Eager loading is a way to find objects of a certain class and a number of named associations.
-    # This is one of the easiest ways of to prevent the dreaded 1+N problem in which fetching 100
-    # posts that each need to display their author triggers 101 database queries. Through the
-    # use of eager loading, the 101 queries can be reduced to 2.
-    #
-    #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :author
-    #     has_many   :comments
-    #   end
-    #
-    # Consider the following loop using the class above:
-    #
-    #   Post.all.each do |post|
-    #     puts "Post:            " + post.title
-    #     puts "Written by:      " + post.author.name
-    #     puts "Last comment on: " + post.comments.first.created_on
-    #   end
-    #
-    # To iterate over these one hundred posts, we'll generate 201 database queries. Let's
-    # first just optimize it for retrieving the author:
-    #
-    #   Post.includes(:author).each do |post|
-    #
-    # This references the name of the +belongs_to+ association that also used the <tt>:author</tt>
-    # symbol. After loading the posts, find will collect the +author_id+ from each one and load
-    # all the referenced authors with one query. Doing so will cut down the number of queries
-    # from 201 to 102.
-    #
-    # We can improve upon the situation further by referencing both associations in the finder with:
-    #
-    #   Post.includes(:author, :comments).each do |post|
-    #
-    # This will load all comments with a single query. This reduces the total number of queries
-    # to 3. More generally the number of queries will be 1 plus the number of associations
-    # named (except if some of the associations are polymorphic +belongs_to+ - see below).
-    #
-    # To include a deep hierarchy of associations, use a hash:
-    #
-    #   Post.includes(:author, {:comments => {:author => :gravatar}}).each do |post|
-    #
-    # That'll grab not only all the comments but all their authors and gravatar pictures.
-    # You can mix and match symbols, arrays and hashes in any combination to describe the
-    # associations you want to load.
-    #
-    # All of this power shouldn't fool you into thinking that you can pull out huge amounts
-    # of data with no performance penalty just because you've reduced the number of queries.
-    # The database still needs to send all the data to Active Record and it still needs to
-    # be processed. So it's no catch-all for performance problems, but it's a great way to
-    # cut down on the number of queries in a situation as the one described above.
-    #
-    # Since only one table is loaded at a time, conditions or orders cannot reference tables
-    # other than the main one. If this is the case Active Record falls back to the previously
-    # used LEFT OUTER JOIN based strategy. For example
-    #
-    #   Post.includes([:author, :comments]).where(['comments.approved = ?', true]).all
-    #
-    # This will result in a single SQL query with joins along the lines of:
-    # <tt>LEFT OUTER JOIN comments ON comments.post_id = posts.id</tt> and
-    # <tt>LEFT OUTER JOIN authors ON authors.id = posts.author_id</tt>. Note that using conditions
-    # like this can have unintended consequences.
-    # In the above example posts with no approved comments are not returned at all, because
-    # the conditions apply to the SQL statement as a whole and not just to the association.
-    # You must disambiguate column references for this fallback to happen, for example
-    # <tt>:order => "author.name DESC"</tt> will work but <tt>:order => "name DESC"</tt> will not.
-    #
-    # If you do want eager load only some members of an association it is usually more natural
-    # to include an association which has conditions defined on it:
-    #
-    #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :approved_comments, :class_name => 'Comment', :conditions => ['approved = ?', true]
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   Post.includes(:approved_comments)
-    #
-    # This will load posts and eager load the +approved_comments+ association, which contains
-    # only those comments that have been approved.
-    #
-    # If you eager load an association with a specified <tt>:limit</tt> option, it will be ignored,
-    # returning all the associated objects:
-    #
-    #   class Picture < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     has_many :most_recent_comments, :class_name => 'Comment', :order => 'id DESC', :limit => 10
-    #   end
-    #
-    #   Picture.includes(:most_recent_comments).first.most_recent_comments # => returns all associated comments.
-    #
-    # When eager loaded, conditions are interpolated in the context of the model class, not
-    # the model instance. Conditions are lazily interpolated before the actual model exists.
-    #
-    # Eager loading is supported with polymorphic associations.
-    #
-    #   class Address < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #     belongs_to :addressable, :polymorphic => true
-    #   end
-    #
-    # A call that tries to eager load the addressable model
-    #
-    #   Address.includes(:addressable)
-    #
-    # This will execute one query to load the addresses and load the addressables with one
-    # query per addressable type.
-    # For example if all the addressables are either of class Person or Company then a total
-    # of 3 queries will be executed. The list of addressable types to load is determined on
-    # the back of the addresses loaded. This is not supported if Active Record has to fallback
-    # to the previous implementation of eager loading and will raise ActiveRecord::EagerLoadPolymorphicError.
-    # The reason is that the parent model's type is a column value so its corresponding table
-    # name cannot be put in the +FROM+/+JOIN+ clauses of that query.
-    #
-    # == Table Aliasing
-    #
-    # Active Record uses table aliasing in the case that a table is referenced multiple times
-    # in a join. If a table is referenced only once, the standard table name is used. The
-    # second time, the table is aliased as <tt>#{reflection_name}_#{parent_table_name}</tt>.
-    # Indexes are appended for any more successive uses of the table name.
-    #
-    #   Post.joins(:comments)
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments ON ...
-    #   Post.joins(:special_comments) # STI
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments ON ... AND comments.type = 'SpecialComment'
-    #   Post.joins(:comments, :special_comments) # special_comments is the reflection name, posts is the parent table name
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments ON ... INNER JOIN comments special_comments_posts
-    #
-    # Acts as tree example:
-    #
-    #   TreeMixin.joins(:children)
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM mixins INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins ...
-    #   TreeMixin.joins(:children => :parent)
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM mixins INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins ...
-    #                               INNER JOIN parents_mixins ...
-    #   TreeMixin.joins(:children => {:parent => :children})
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM mixins INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins ...
-    #                               INNER JOIN parents_mixins ...
-    #                               INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins_2
-    #
-    # Has and Belongs to Many join tables use the same idea, but add a <tt>_join</tt> suffix:
-    #
-    #   Post.joins(:categories)
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN categories_posts ... INNER JOIN categories ...
-    #   Post.joins(:categories => :posts)
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN categories_posts ... INNER JOIN categories ...
-    #                              INNER JOIN categories_posts posts_categories_join INNER JOIN posts posts_categories
-    #   Post.joins(:categories => {:posts => :categories})
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN categories_posts ... INNER JOIN categories ...
-    #                              INNER JOIN categories_posts posts_categories_join INNER JOIN posts posts_categories
-    #                              INNER JOIN categories_posts categories_posts_join INNER JOIN categories categories_posts_2
-    #
-    # If you wish to specify your own custom joins using <tt>joins</tt> method, those table
-    # names will take precedence over the eager associations:
-    #
-    #   Post.joins(:comments).joins("inner join comments ...")
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments_posts ON ... INNER JOIN comments ...
-    #   Post.joins(:comments, :special_comments).joins("inner join comments ...")
-    #   # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments comments_posts ON ...
-    #                              INNER JOIN comments special_comments_posts ...
-    #                              INNER JOIN comments ...
-    #
-    # Table aliases are automatically truncated according to the maximum length of table identifiers
-    # according to the specific database.
-    #
-    # == Modules
-    #
-    # By default, associations will look for objects within the current module scope. Consider:
-    #
-    #   module MyApplication
-    #     module Business
-    #       class Firm < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #          has_many :clients
-    #        end
-    #
-    #       class Client < ActiveRecord::Base; end
-    #     end
-    #   end
-    #
-    # When <tt>Firm#clients</tt> is called, it will in turn call
-    # <tt>MyApplication::Business::Client.find_all_by_firm_id(firm.id)</tt>.
-    # If you want to associate with a class in another module scope, this can be done by
-    # specifying the complete class name.
-    #
-    #   module MyApplication
-    #     module Business
-    #       class Firm < ActiveRecord::Base; end
-    #     end
-    #
-    #     module Billing
-    #       class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #         belongs_to :firm, :class_name => "MyApplication::Business::Firm"
-    #       end
-    #     end
-    #   end
-    #
-    # == Bi-directional associations
-    #
-    # When you specify an association there is usually an association on the associated model
-    # that specifies the same relationship in reverse. For example, with the following models:
-    #
-    #    class Dungeon < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #      has_many :traps
-    #      has_one :evil_wizard
-    #    end
-    #
-    #    class Trap < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #      belongs_to :dungeon
-    #    end
-    #
-    #    class EvilWizard < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #      belongs_to :dungeon
-    #    end
-    #
-    # The +traps+ association on +Dungeon+ and the +dungeon+ association on +Trap+ are
-    # the inverse of each other and the inverse of the +dungeon+ association on +EvilWizard+
-    # is the +evil_wizard+ association on +Dungeon+ (and vice-versa). By default,
-    # Active Record doesn't know anything about these inverse relationships and so no object
-    # loading optimization is possible. For example:
-    #
-    #    d = Dungeon.first
-    #    t = d.traps.first
-    #    d.level == t.dungeon.level # => true
-    #    d.level = 10
-    #    d.level == t.dungeon.level # => false
-    #
-    # The +Dungeon+ instances +d+ and <tt>t.dungeon</tt> in the above example refer to
-    # the same object data from the database, but are actually different in-memory copies
-    # of that data. Specifying the <tt>:inverse_of</tt> option on associations lets you tell
-    # Active Record about inverse relationships and it will optimise object loading. For
-    # example, if we changed our model definitions to:
-    #
-    #    class Dungeon < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #      has_many :traps, :inverse_of => :dungeon
-    #      has_one :evil_wizard, :inverse_of => :dungeon
-    #    end
-    #
-    #    class Trap < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #      belongs_to :dungeon, :inverse_of => :traps
-    #    end
-    #
-    #    class EvilWizard < ActiveRecord::Base
-    #      belongs_to :dungeon, :inverse_of => :evil_wizard
-    #    end
-    #
-    # Then, from our code snippet above, +d+ and <tt>t.dungeon</tt> are actually the same
-    # in-memory instance and our final <tt>d.level == t.dungeon.level</tt> will return +true+.
-    #
-    # There are limitations to <tt>:inverse_of</tt> support:
-    #
-    # * does not work with <tt>:through</tt> associations.
-    # * does not work with <tt>:polymorphic</tt> associations.
-    # * for +belongs_to+ associations +has_many+ inverse associations are ignored.
-    #
-    # == Deleting from associations
-    #
-    # === Dependent associations
-    #
-    # +has_many+, +has_one+ and +belongs_to+ associations support the <tt>:dependent</tt> option.
-    # This allows you to specify that associated records should be deleted when the owner is
-    # deleted.
-    #
-    # For example:
-    #
-    #     class Author
-    #       has_many :posts, :dependent => :destroy
-    #     end
-    #     Author.find(1).destroy # => Will destroy all of the author's posts, too
-    #
-    # The <tt>:dependent</tt> option can have different values which specify how the deletion
-    # is done. For more information, see the documentation for this option on the different
-    # specific association types.
-    #
-    # === Delete or destroy?
-    #
-    # +has_many+ and +has_and_belongs_to_many+ associations have the methods <tt>destroy</tt>,
-    # <tt>delete</tt>, <tt>destroy_all</tt> and <tt>delete_all</tt>.
-    #
-    # For +has_and_belongs_to_many+, <tt>delete</tt> and <tt>destroy</tt> are the same: they
-    # cause the records in the join table to be removed.
-    #
-    # For +has_many+, <tt>destroy</tt> will always call the <tt>destroy</tt> method of the
-    # record(s) being removed so that callbacks are run. However <tt>delete</tt> will either
-    # do the deletion according to the strategy specified by the <tt>:dependent</tt> option, or
-    # if no <tt>:dependent</tt> option is given, then it will follow the default strategy.
-    # The default strategy is <tt>:nullify</tt> (set the foreign keys to <tt>nil</tt>), except for
-    # +has_many+ <tt>:through</tt>, where the default strategy is <tt>delete_all</tt> (delete
-    # the join records, without running their callbacks).
-    #
-    # There is also a <tt>clear</tt> method which is the same as <tt>delete_all</tt>, except that
-    # it returns the association rather than the records which have been deleted.
-    #
-    # === What gets deleted?
-    #
-    # There is a potential pitfall here: +has_and_belongs_to_many+ and +has_many+ <tt>:through</tt>
-    # associations have records in join tables, as well as the associated records. So when we
-    # call one of these deletion methods, what exactly should be deleted?
-    #
-    # The answer is that it is assumed that deletion on an association is about removing the
-    # <i>link</i> between the owner and the associated object(s), rather than necessarily the
-    # associated objects themselves. So with +has_and_belongs_to_many+ and +has_many+
-    # <tt>:through</tt>, the join records will be deleted, but the associated records won't.
-    #
-    # This makes sense if you think about it: if you were to call <tt>post.tags.delete(Tag.find_by_name('food'))</tt>
-    # you would want the 'food' tag to be unlinked from the post, rather than for the tag itself
-    # to be removed from the database.
-    #
-    # However, there are examples where this strategy doesn't make sense. For example, suppose
-    # a person has many projects, and each project has many tasks. If we deleted one of a person's
-    # tasks, we would probably not want the project to be deleted. In this scenario, the delete method
-    # won't actually work: it can only be used if the association on the join model is a
-    # +belongs_to+. In other situations you are expected to perform operations directly on
-    # either the associated records or the <tt>:through</tt> association.
-    #
-    # With a regular +has_many+ there is no distinction between the "associated records"
-    # and the "link", so there is only one choice for what gets deleted.
-    #
-    # With +has_and_belongs_to_many+ and +has_many+ <tt>:through</tt>, if you want to delete the
-    # associated records themselves, you can always do something along the lines of
-    # <tt>person.tasks.each(&:destroy)</tt>.
-    #
-    # == Type safety with <tt>ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch</tt>
-    #
-    # If you attempt to assign an object to an association that doesn't match the inferred
-    # or specified <tt>:class_name</tt>, you'll get an <tt>ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch</tt>.
-    #
-    # == Options
-    #
-    # All of the association macros can be specialized through options. This makes cases
-    # more complex than the simple and guessable ones possible.
-    module ClassMethods
-      # Specifies a one-to-many association. The following methods for retrieval and query of
-      # collections of associated objects will be added:
-      #
-      # [collection(force_reload = false)]
-      #   Returns an array of all the associated objects.
-      #   An empty array is returned if none are found.
-      # [collection<<(object, ...)]
-      #   Adds one or more objects to the collection by setting their foreign keys to the collection's primary key.
-      #   Note that this operation instantly fires update sql without waiting for the save or update call on the
-      #   parent object.
-      # [collection.delete(object, ...)]
-      #   Removes one or more objects from the collection by setting their foreign keys to +NULL+.
-      #   Objects will be in addition destroyed if they're associated with <tt>:dependent => :destroy</tt>,
-      #   and deleted if they're associated with <tt>:dependent => :delete_all</tt>.
-      #
-      #   If the <tt>:through</tt> option is used, then the join records are deleted (rather than
-      #   nullified) by default, but you can specify <tt>:dependent => :destroy</tt> or
-      #   <tt>:dependent => :nullify</tt> to override this.
-      # [collection=objects]
-      #   Replaces the collections content by deleting and adding objects as appropriate. If the <tt>:through</tt>
-      #   option is true callbacks in the join models are triggered except destroy callbacks, since deletion is
-      #   direct.
-      # [collection_singular_ids]
-      #   Returns an array of the associated objects' ids
-      # [collection_singular_ids=ids]
-      #   Replace the collection with the objects identified by the primary keys in +ids+. This
-      #   method loads the models and calls <tt>collection=</tt>. See above.
-      # [collection.clear]
-      #   Removes every object from the collection. This destroys the associated objects if they
-      #   are associated with <tt>:dependent => :destroy</tt>, deletes them directly from the
-      #   database if <tt>:dependent => :delete_all</tt>, otherwise sets their foreign keys to +NULL+.
-      #   If the <tt>:through</tt> option is true no destroy callbacks are invoked on the join models.
-      #   Join models are directly deleted.
-      # [collection.empty?]
-      #   Returns +true+ if there are no associated objects.
-      # [collection.size]
-      #   Returns the number of associated objects.
-      # [collection.find(...)]
-      #   Finds an associated object according to the same rules as ActiveRecord::Base.find.
-      # [collection.exists?(...)]
-      #   Checks whether an associated object with the given conditions exists.
-      #   Uses the same rules as ActiveRecord::Base.exists?.
-      # [collection.build(attributes = {}, ...)]
-      #   Returns one or more new objects of the collection type that have been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+ and linked to this object through a foreign key, but have not yet
-      #   been saved.
-      # [collection.create(attributes = {})]
-      #   Returns a new object of the collection type that has been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+, linked to this object through a foreign key, and that has already
-      #   been saved (if it passed the validation). *Note*: This only works if the base model
-      #   already exists in the DB, not if it is a new (unsaved) record!
-      #
-      # (*Note*: +collection+ is replaced with the symbol passed as the first argument, so
-      # <tt>has_many :clients</tt> would add among others <tt>clients.empty?</tt>.)
-      #
-      # === Example
-      #
-      # Example: A Firm class declares <tt>has_many :clients</tt>, which will add:
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients</tt> (similar to <tt>Clients.all :conditions => ["firm_id = ?", id]</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients<<</tt>
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.delete</tt>
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients=</tt>
-      # * <tt>Firm#client_ids</tt>
-      # * <tt>Firm#client_ids=</tt>
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.clear</tt>
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.empty?</tt> (similar to <tt>firm.clients.size == 0</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.size</tt> (similar to <tt>Client.count "firm_id = #{id}"</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.find</tt> (similar to <tt>Client.find(id, :conditions => "firm_id = #{id}")</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.exists?(:name => 'ACME')</tt> (similar to <tt>Client.exists?(:name => 'ACME', :firm_id => firm.id)</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.build</tt> (similar to <tt>Client.new("firm_id" => id)</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Firm#clients.create</tt> (similar to <tt>c = Client.new("firm_id" => id); c.save; c</tt>)
-      # The declaration can also include an options hash to specialize the behavior of the association.
-      #
-      # === Options
-      # [:class_name]
-      #   Specify the class name of the association. Use it only if that name can't be inferred
-      #   from the association name. So <tt>has_many :products</tt> will by default be linked
-      #   to the Product class, but if the real class name is SpecialProduct, you'll have to
-      #   specify it with this option.
-      # [:conditions]
-      #   Specify the conditions that the associated objects must meet in order to be included as a +WHERE+
-      #   SQL fragment, such as <tt>price > 5 AND name LIKE 'B%'</tt>. Record creations from
-      #   the association are scoped if a hash is used.
-      #   <tt>has_many :posts, :conditions => {:published => true}</tt> will create published
-      #   posts with <tt>@blog.posts.create</tt> or <tt>@blog.posts.build</tt>.
-      # [:order]
-      #   Specify the order in which the associated objects are returned as an <tt>ORDER BY</tt> SQL fragment,
-      #   such as <tt>last_name, first_name DESC</tt>.
-      # [:foreign_key]
-      #   Specify the foreign key used for the association. By default this is guessed to be the name
-      #   of this class in lower-case and "_id" suffixed. So a Person class that makes a +has_many+
-      #   association will use "person_id" as the default <tt>:foreign_key</tt>.
-      # [:primary_key]
-      #   Specify the method that returns the primary key used for the association. By default this is +id+.
-      # [:dependent]
-      #   If set to <tt>:destroy</tt> all the associated objects are destroyed
-      #   alongside this object by calling their +destroy+ method. If set to <tt>:delete_all</tt> all associated
-      #   objects are deleted *without* calling their +destroy+ method. If set to <tt>:nullify</tt> all associated
-      #   objects' foreign keys are set to +NULL+ *without* calling their +save+ callbacks. If set to
-      #   <tt>:restrict</tt> this object raises an <tt>ActiveRecord::DeleteRestrictionError</tt> exception and
-      #   cannot be deleted if it has any associated objects.
-      #
-      #   If using with the <tt>:through</tt> option, the association on the join model must be
-      #   a +belongs_to+, and the records which get deleted are the join records, rather than
-      #   the associated records.
-      #
-      # [:finder_sql]
-      #   Specify a complete SQL statement to fetch the association. This is a good way to go for complex
-      #   associations that depend on multiple tables. May be supplied as a string or a proc where interpolation is
-      #   required. Note: When this option is used, +find_in_collection+
-      #   is _not_ added.
-      # [:counter_sql]
-      #   Specify a complete SQL statement to fetch the size of the association. If <tt>:finder_sql</tt> is
-      #   specified but not <tt>:counter_sql</tt>, <tt>:counter_sql</tt> will be generated by
-      #   replacing <tt>SELECT ... FROM</tt> with <tt>SELECT COUNT(*) FROM</tt>.
-      # [:extend]
-      #   Specify a named module for extending the proxy. See "Association extensions".
-      # [:include]
-      #   Specify second-order associations that should be eager loaded when the collection is loaded.
-      # [:group]
-      #   An attribute name by which the result should be grouped. Uses the <tt>GROUP BY</tt> SQL-clause.
-      # [:having]
-      #   Combined with +:group+ this can be used to filter the records that a <tt>GROUP BY</tt>
-      #   returns. Uses the <tt>HAVING</tt> SQL-clause.
-      # [:limit]
-      #   An integer determining the limit on the number of rows that should be returned.
-      # [:offset]
-      #   An integer determining the offset from where the rows should be fetched. So at 5,
-      #   it would skip the first 4 rows.
-      # [:select]
-      #   By default, this is <tt>*</tt> as in <tt>SELECT * FROM</tt>, but can be changed if
-      #   you, for example, want to do a join but not include the joined columns. Do not forget
-      #   to include the primary and foreign keys, otherwise it will raise an error.
-      # [:as]
-      #   Specifies a polymorphic interface (See <tt>belongs_to</tt>).
-      # [:through]
-      #   Specifies an association through which to perform the query. This can be any other type
-      #   of association, including other <tt>:through</tt> associations. Options for <tt>:class_name</tt>,
-      #   <tt>:primary_key</tt> and <tt>:foreign_key</tt> are ignored, as the association uses the
-      #   source reflection.
-      #
-      #   If the association on the join model is a +belongs_to+, the collection can be modified
-      #   and the records on the <tt>:through</tt> model will be automatically created and removed
-      #   as appropriate. Otherwise, the collection is read-only, so you should manipulate the
-      #   <tt>:through</tt> association directly.
-      #
-      #   If you are going to modify the association (rather than just read from it), then it is
-      #   a good idea to set the <tt>:inverse_of</tt> option on the source association on the
-      #   join model. This allows associated records to be built which will automatically create
-      #   the appropriate join model records when they are saved. (See the 'Association Join Models'
-      #   section above.)
-      # [:source]
-      #   Specifies the source association name used by <tt>has_many :through</tt> queries.
-      #   Only use it if the name cannot be inferred from the association.
-      #   <tt>has_many :subscribers, :through => :subscriptions</tt> will look for either <tt>:subscribers</tt> or
-      #   <tt>:subscriber</tt> on Subscription, unless a <tt>:source</tt> is given.
-      # [:source_type]
-      #   Specifies type of the source association used by <tt>has_many :through</tt> queries where the source
-      #   association is a polymorphic +belongs_to+.
-      # [:uniq]
-      #   If true, duplicates will be omitted from the collection. Useful in conjunction with <tt>:through</tt>.
-      # [:readonly]
-      #   If true, all the associated objects are readonly through the association.
-      # [:validate]
-      #   If +false+, don't validate the associated objects when saving the parent object. true by default.
-      # [:autosave]
-      #   If true, always save the associated objects or destroy them if marked for destruction,
-      #   when saving the parent object. If false, never save or destroy the associated objects.
-      #   By default, only save associated objects that are new records.
-      # [:inverse_of]
-      #   Specifies the name of the <tt>belongs_to</tt> association on the associated object
-      #   that is the inverse of this <tt>has_many</tt> association. Does not work in combination
-      #   with <tt>:through</tt> or <tt>:as</tt> options.
-      #   See ActiveRecord::Associations::ClassMethods's overview on Bi-directional associations for more detail.
-      #
-      # Option examples:
-      #   has_many :comments, :order => "posted_on"
-      #   has_many :comments, :include => :author
-      #   has_many :people, :class_name => "Person", :conditions => "deleted = 0", :order => "name"
-      #   has_many :tracks, :order => "position", :dependent => :destroy
-      #   has_many :comments, :dependent => :nullify
-      #   has_many :tags, :as => :taggable
-      #   has_many :reports, :readonly => true
-      #   has_many :subscribers, :through => :subscriptions, :source => :user
-      #   has_many :subscribers, :class_name => "Person", :finder_sql => Proc.new {
-      #       %Q{
-      #         SELECT DISTINCT *
-      #         FROM people p, post_subscriptions ps
-      #         WHERE ps.post_id = #{id} AND ps.person_id = p.id
-      #         ORDER BY p.first_name
-      #       }
-      #   }
-      def has_many(name, options = {}, &extension)
-        Builder::HasMany.build(self, name, options, &extension)
-      end
-
-      # Specifies a one-to-one association with another class. This method should only be used
-      # if the other class contains the foreign key. If the current class contains the foreign key,
-      # then you should use +belongs_to+ instead. See also ActiveRecord::Associations::ClassMethods's overview
-      # on when to use has_one and when to use belongs_to.
-      #
-      # The following methods for retrieval and query of a single associated object will be added:
-      #
-      # [association(force_reload = false)]
-      #   Returns the associated object. +nil+ is returned if none is found.
-      # [association=(associate)]
-      #   Assigns the associate object, extracts the primary key, sets it as the foreign key,
-      #   and saves the associate object.
-      # [build_association(attributes = {})]
-      #   Returns a new object of the associated type that has been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+ and linked to this object through a foreign key, but has not
-      #   yet been saved.
-      # [create_association(attributes = {})]
-      #   Returns a new object of the associated type that has been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+, linked to this object through a foreign key, and that
-      #   has already been saved (if it passed the validation).
-      # [create_association!(attributes = {})]
-      #   Does the same as <tt>create_association</tt>, but raises <tt>ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid</tt>
-      #   if the record is invalid.
-      #
-      # (+association+ is replaced with the symbol passed as the first argument, so
-      # <tt>has_one :manager</tt> would add among others <tt>manager.nil?</tt>.)
-      #
-      # === Example
-      #
-      # An Account class declares <tt>has_one :beneficiary</tt>, which will add:

-      #
-      # === Options
-      #
-      # The declaration can also include an options hash to specialize the behavior of the association.
-      #
-      # Options are:
-      # [:class_name]
-      #   Specify the class name of the association. Use it only if that name can't be inferred
-      #   from the association name. So <tt>has_one :manager</tt> will by default be linked to the Manager class, but
-      #   if the real class name is Person, you'll have to specify it with this option.
-      # [:conditions]
-      #   Specify the conditions that the associated object must meet in order to be included as a +WHERE+
-      #   SQL fragment, such as <tt>rank = 5</tt>. Record creation from the association is scoped if a hash
-      #   is used. <tt>has_one :account, :conditions => {:enabled => true}</tt> will create
-      #   an enabled account with <tt>@company.create_account</tt> or <tt>@company.build_account</tt>.
-      # [:order]
-      #   Specify the order in which the associated objects are returned as an <tt>ORDER BY</tt> SQL fragment,
-      #   such as <tt>last_name, first_name DESC</tt>.
-      # [:dependent]
-      #   If set to <tt>:destroy</tt>, the associated object is destroyed when this object is. If set to
-      #   <tt>:delete</tt>, the associated object is deleted *without* calling its destroy method.
-      #   If set to <tt>:nullify</tt>, the associated object's foreign key is set to +NULL+.
-      #   Also, association is assigned. If set to <tt>:restrict</tt> this object raises an
-      #   <tt>ActiveRecord::DeleteRestrictionError</tt> exception and cannot be deleted if it has any associated object.
-      # [:foreign_key]
-      #   Specify the foreign key used for the association. By default this is guessed to be the name
-      #   of this class in lower-case and "_id" suffixed. So a Person class that makes a +has_one+ association
-      #   will use "person_id" as the default <tt>:foreign_key</tt>.
-      # [:primary_key]
-      #   Specify the method that returns the primary key used for the association. By default this is +id+.
-      # [:include]
-      #   Specify second-order associations that should be eager loaded when this object is loaded.
-      # [:as]
-      #   Specifies a polymorphic interface (See <tt>belongs_to</tt>).
-      # [:select]
-      #   By default, this is <tt>*</tt> as in <tt>SELECT * FROM</tt>, but can be changed if, for example,
-      #   you want to do a join but not include the joined columns. Do not forget to include the
-      #   primary and foreign keys, otherwise it will raise an error.
-      # [:through]
-      #   Specifies a Join Model through which to perform the query. Options for <tt>:class_name</tt>,
-      #   <tt>:primary_key</tt>, and <tt>:foreign_key</tt> are ignored, as the association uses the
-      #   source reflection. You can only use a <tt>:through</tt> query through a <tt>has_one</tt>
-      #   or <tt>belongs_to</tt> association on the join model.
-      # [:source]
-      #   Specifies the source association name used by <tt>has_one :through</tt> queries.
-      #   Only use it if the name cannot be inferred from the association.
-      #   <tt>has_one :favorite, :through => :favorites</tt> will look for a
-      #   <tt>:favorite</tt> on Favorite, unless a <tt>:source</tt> is given.
-      # [:source_type]
-      #   Specifies type of the source association used by <tt>has_one :through</tt> queries where the source
-      #   association is a polymorphic +belongs_to+.
-      # [:readonly]
-      #   If true, the associated object is readonly through the association.
-      # [:validate]
-      #   If +false+, don't validate the associated object when saving the parent object. +false+ by default.
-      # [:autosave]
-      #   If true, always save the associated object or destroy it if marked for destruction,
-      #   when saving the parent object. If false, never save or destroy the associated object.
-      #   By default, only save the associated object if it's a new record.
-      # [:inverse_of]
-      #   Specifies the name of the <tt>belongs_to</tt> association on the associated object
-      #   that is the inverse of this <tt>has_one</tt> association. Does not work in combination
-      #   with <tt>:through</tt> or <tt>:as</tt> options.
-      #   See ActiveRecord::Associations::ClassMethods's overview on Bi-directional associations for more detail.
-      #
-      # Option examples:
-      #   has_one :credit_card, :dependent => :destroy  # destroys the associated credit card
-      #   has_one :credit_card, :dependent => :nullify  # updates the associated records foreign
-      #                                                 # key value to NULL rather than destroying it
-      #   has_one :last_comment, :class_name => "Comment", :order => "posted_on"
-      #   has_one :project_manager, :class_name => "Person", :conditions => "role = 'project_manager'"
-      #   has_one :attachment, :as => :attachable
-      #   has_one :boss, :readonly => :true
-      #   has_one :club, :through => :membership
-      #   has_one :primary_address, :through => :addressables, :conditions => ["addressable.primary = ?", true], :source => :addressable
-      def has_one(name, options = {})
-        Builder::HasOne.build(self, name, options)
-      end
-
-      # Specifies a one-to-one association with another class. This method should only be used
-      # if this class contains the foreign key. If the other class contains the foreign key,
-      # then you should use +has_one+ instead. See also ActiveRecord::Associations::ClassMethods's overview
-      # on when to use +has_one+ and when to use +belongs_to+.
-      #
-      # Methods will be added for retrieval and query for a single associated object, for which
-      # this object holds an id:
-      #
-      # [association(force_reload = false)]
-      #   Returns the associated object. +nil+ is returned if none is found.
-      # [association=(associate)]
-      #   Assigns the associate object, extracts the primary key, and sets it as the foreign key.
-      # [build_association(attributes = {})]
-      #   Returns a new object of the associated type that has been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+ and linked to this object through a foreign key, but has not yet been saved.
-      # [create_association(attributes = {})]
-      #   Returns a new object of the associated type that has been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+, linked to this object through a foreign key, and that
-      #   has already been saved (if it passed the validation).
-      # [create_association!(attributes = {})]
-      #   Does the same as <tt>create_association</tt>, but raises <tt>ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid</tt>
-      #   if the record is invalid.
-      #
-      # (+association+ is replaced with the symbol passed as the first argument, so
-      # <tt>belongs_to :author</tt> would add among others <tt>author.nil?</tt>.)
-      #
-      # === Example
-      #
-      # A Post class declares <tt>belongs_to :author</tt>, which will add:
-      # * <tt>Post#author</tt> (similar to <tt>Author.find(author_id)</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Post#author=(author)</tt> (similar to <tt>post.author_id = author.id</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Post#build_author</tt> (similar to <tt>post.author = Author.new</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Post#create_author</tt> (similar to <tt>post.author = Author.new; post.author.save; post.author</tt>)
-      # * <tt>Post#create_author!</tt> (similar to <tt>post.author = Author.new; post.author.save!; post.author</tt>)
-      # The declaration can also include an options hash to specialize the behavior of the association.
-      #
-      # === Options
-      #
-      # [:class_name]
-      #   Specify the class name of the association. Use it only if that name can't be inferred
-      #   from the association name. So <tt>belongs_to :author</tt> will by default be linked to the Author class, but
-      #   if the real class name is Person, you'll have to specify it with this option.
-      # [:conditions]
-      #   Specify the conditions that the associated object must meet in order to be included as a +WHERE+
-      #   SQL fragment, such as <tt>authorized = 1</tt>.
-      # [:select]
-      #   By default, this is <tt>*</tt> as in <tt>SELECT * FROM</tt>, but can be changed
-      #   if, for example, you want to do a join but not include the joined columns. Do not
-      #   forget to include the primary and foreign keys, otherwise it will raise an error.
-      # [:foreign_key]
-      #   Specify the foreign key used for the association. By default this is guessed to be the name
-      #   of the association with an "_id" suffix. So a class that defines a <tt>belongs_to :person</tt>
-      #   association will use "person_id" as the default <tt>:foreign_key</tt>. Similarly,
-      #   <tt>belongs_to :favorite_person, :class_name => "Person"</tt> will use a foreign key
-      #   of "favorite_person_id".
-      # [:foreign_type]
-      #   Specify the column used to store the associated object's type, if this is a polymorphic
-      #   association. By default this is guessed to be the name of the association with a "_type"
-      #   suffix. So a class that defines a <tt>belongs_to :taggable, :polymorphic => true</tt>
-      #   association will use "taggable_type" as the default <tt>:foreign_type</tt>.
-      # [:primary_key]
-      #   Specify the method that returns the primary key of associated object used for the association.
-      #   By default this is id.
-      # [:dependent]
-      #   If set to <tt>:destroy</tt>, the associated object is destroyed when this object is. If set to
-      #   <tt>:delete</tt>, the associated object is deleted *without* calling its destroy method.
-      #   This option should not be specified when <tt>belongs_to</tt> is used in conjunction with
-      #   a <tt>has_many</tt> relationship on another class because of the potential to leave
-      #   orphaned records behind.
-      # [:counter_cache]
-      #   Caches the number of belonging objects on the associate class through the use of +increment_counter+
-      #   and +decrement_counter+. The counter cache is incremented when an object of this
-      #   class is created and decremented when it's destroyed. This requires that a column
-      #   named <tt>#{table_name}_count</tt> (such as +comments_count+ for a belonging Comment class)
-      #   is used on the associate class (such as a Post class). You can also specify a custom counter
-      #   cache column by providing a column name instead of a +true+/+false+ value to this
-      #   option (e.g., <tt>:counter_cache => :my_custom_counter</tt>.)
-      #   Note: Specifying a counter cache will add it to that model's list of readonly attributes
-      #   using +attr_readonly+.
-      # [:include]
-      #   Specify second-order associations that should be eager loaded when this object is loaded.
-      # [:polymorphic]
-      #   Specify this association is a polymorphic association by passing +true+.
-      #   Note: If you've enabled the counter cache, then you may want to add the counter cache attribute
-      #   to the +attr_readonly+ list in the associated classes (e.g. <tt>class Post; attr_readonly :comments_count; end</tt>).
-      # [:readonly]
-      #   If true, the associated object is readonly through the association.
-      # [:validate]
-      #   If +false+, don't validate the associated objects when saving the parent object. +false+ by default.
-      # [:autosave]
-      #   If true, always save the associated object or destroy it if marked for destruction, when
-      #   saving the parent object.
-      #   If false, never save or destroy the associated object.
-      #   By default, only save the associated object if it's a new record.
-      # [:touch]
-      #   If true, the associated object will be touched (the updated_at/on attributes set to now)
-      #   when this record is either saved or destroyed. If you specify a symbol, that attribute
-      #   will be updated with the current time in addition to the updated_at/on attribute.
-      # [:inverse_of]
-      #   Specifies the name of the <tt>has_one</tt> or <tt>has_many</tt> association on the associated
-      #   object that is the inverse of this <tt>belongs_to</tt> association. Does not work in
-      #   combination with the <tt>:polymorphic</tt> options.
-      #   See ActiveRecord::Associations::ClassMethods's overview on Bi-directional associations for more detail.
-      #
-      # Option examples:
-      #   belongs_to :firm, :foreign_key => "client_of"
-      #   belongs_to :person, :primary_key => "name", :foreign_key => "person_name"
-      #   belongs_to :author, :class_name => "Person", :foreign_key => "author_id"
-      #   belongs_to :valid_coupon, :class_name => "Coupon", :foreign_key => "coupon_id",
-      #              :conditions => 'discounts > #{payments_count}'
-      #   belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true
-      #   belongs_to :project, :readonly => true
-      #   belongs_to :post, :counter_cache => true
-      #   belongs_to :company, :touch => true

-      end
-
-      # Specifies a many-to-many relationship with another class. This associates two classes via an
-      # intermediate join table. Unless the join table is explicitly specified as an option, it is
-      # guessed using the lexical order of the class names. So a join between Developer and Project
-      # will give the default join table name of "developers_projects" because "D" outranks "P".
-      # Note that this precedence is calculated using the <tt><</tt> operator for String. This
-      # means that if the strings are of different lengths, and the strings are equal when compared
-      # up to the shortest length, then the longer string is considered of higher
-      # lexical precedence than the shorter one. For example, one would expect the tables "paper_boxes" and "papers"
-      # to generate a join table name of "papers_paper_boxes" because of the length of the name "paper_boxes",
-      # but it in fact generates a join table name of "paper_boxes_papers". Be aware of this caveat, and use the
-      # custom <tt>:join_table</tt> option if you need to.
-      #
-      # The join table should not have a primary key or a model associated with it. You must manually generate the
-      # join table with a migration such as this:
-      #
-      #   class CreateDevelopersProjectsJoinTable < ActiveRecord::Migration
-      #     def change
-      #       create_table :developers_projects, :id => false do |t|
-      #         t.integer :developer_id
-      #         t.integer :project_id
-      #       end
-      #     end
-      #   end
-      #
-      # It's also a good idea to add indexes to each of those columns to speed up the joins process.
-      # However, in MySQL it is advised to add a compound index for both of the columns as MySQL only
-      # uses one index per table during the lookup.
-      #
-      # Adds the following methods for retrieval and query:
-      #
-      # [collection(force_reload = false)]
-      #   Returns an array of all the associated objects.
-      #   An empty array is returned if none are found.
-      # [collection<<(object, ...)]
-      #   Adds one or more objects to the collection by creating associations in the join table
-      #   (<tt>collection.push</tt> and <tt>collection.concat</tt> are aliases to this method).
-      #   Note that this operation instantly fires update sql without waiting for the save or update call on the
-      #   parent object.
-      # [collection.delete(object, ...)]
-      #   Removes one or more objects from the collection by removing their associations from the join table.
-      #   This does not destroy the objects.
-      # [collection=objects]
-      #   Replaces the collection's content by deleting and adding objects as appropriate.
-      # [collection_singular_ids]
-      #   Returns an array of the associated objects' ids.
-      # [collection_singular_ids=ids]
-      #   Replace the collection by the objects identified by the primary keys in +ids+.
-      # [collection.clear]
-      #   Removes every object from the collection. This does not destroy the objects.
-      # [collection.empty?]
-      #   Returns +true+ if there are no associated objects.
-      # [collection.size]
-      #   Returns the number of associated objects.
-      # [collection.find(id)]
-      #   Finds an associated object responding to the +id+ and that
-      #   meets the condition that it has to be associated with this object.
-      #   Uses the same rules as ActiveRecord::Base.find.
-      # [collection.exists?(...)]
-      #   Checks whether an associated object with the given conditions exists.
-      #   Uses the same rules as ActiveRecord::Base.exists?.
-      # [collection.build(attributes = {})]
-      #   Returns a new object of the collection type that has been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+ and linked to this object through the join table, but has not yet been saved.
-      # [collection.create(attributes = {})]
-      #   Returns a new object of the collection type that has been instantiated
-      #   with +attributes+, linked to this object through the join table, and that has already been
-      #   saved (if it passed the validation).
-      #
-      # (+collection+ is replaced with the symbol passed as the first argument, so
-      # <tt>has_and_belongs_to_many :categories</tt> would add among others <tt>categories.empty?</tt>.)
-      #
-      # === Example
-      #
-      # A Developer class declares <tt>has_and_belongs_to_many :projects</tt>, which will add:
-      # * <tt>Developer#projects</tt>
-      # * <tt>Developer#projects<<</tt>

-      # The declaration may include an options hash to specialize the behavior of the association.
-      #
-      # === Options
-      #
-      # [:class_name]
-      #   Specify the class name of the association. Use it only if that name can't be inferred
-      #   from the association name. So <tt>has_and_belongs_to_many :projects</tt> will by default be linked to the
-      #   Project class, but if the real class name is SuperProject, you'll have to specify it with this option.
-      # [:join_table]
-      #   Specify the name of the join table if the default based on lexical order isn't what you want.
-      #   <b>WARNING:</b> If you're overwriting the table name of either class, the +table_name+ method
-      #   MUST be declared underneath any +has_and_belongs_to_many+ declaration in order to work.
-      # [:foreign_key]
-      #   Specify the foreign key used for the association. By default this is guessed to be the name
-      #   of this class in lower-case and "_id" suffixed. So a Person class that makes
-      #   a +has_and_belongs_to_many+ association to Project will use "person_id" as the
-      #   default <tt>:foreign_key</tt>.
-      # [:association_foreign_key]
-      #   Specify the foreign key used for the association on the receiving side of the association.
-      #   By default this is guessed to be the name of the associated class in lower-case and "_id" suffixed.
-      #   So if a Person class makes a +has_and_belongs_to_many+ association to Project,
-      #   the association will use "project_id" as the default <tt>:association_foreign_key</tt>.
-      # [:conditions]
-      #   Specify the conditions that the associated object must meet in order to be included as a +WHERE+
-      #   SQL fragment, such as <tt>authorized = 1</tt>. Record creations from the association are
-      #   scoped if a hash is used.
-      #   <tt>has_many :posts, :conditions => {:published => true}</tt> will create published posts with <tt>@blog.posts.create</tt>
-      #   or <tt>@blog.posts.build</tt>.
-      # [:order]
-      #   Specify the order in which the associated objects are returned as an <tt>ORDER BY</tt> SQL fragment,
-      #   such as <tt>last_name, first_name DESC</tt>
-      # [:uniq]
-      #   If true, duplicate associated objects will be ignored by accessors and query methods.
-      # [:finder_sql]
-      #   Overwrite the default generated SQL statement used to fetch the association with a manual statement
-      # [:counter_sql]
-      #   Specify a complete SQL statement to fetch the size of the association. If <tt>:finder_sql</tt> is
-      #   specified but not <tt>:counter_sql</tt>, <tt>:counter_sql</tt> will be generated by
-      #   replacing <tt>SELECT ... FROM</tt> with <tt>SELECT COUNT(*) FROM</tt>.
-      # [:delete_sql]
-      #   Overwrite the default generated SQL statement used to remove links between the associated
-      #   classes with a manual statement.
-      # [:insert_sql]
-      #   Overwrite the default generated SQL statement used to add links between the associated classes

-      #   Specify second-order associations that should be eager loaded when the collection is loaded.
-      # [:group]
-      #   An attribute name by which the result should be grouped. Uses the <tt>GROUP BY</tt> SQL-clause.
-      # [:having]
-      #   Combined with +:group+ this can be used to filter the records that a <tt>GROUP BY</tt> returns.
-      #   Uses the <tt>HAVING</tt> SQL-clause.
-      # [:limit]
-      #   An integer determining the limit on the number of rows that should be returned.
-      # [:offset]
-      #   An integer determining the offset from where the rows should be fetched. So at 5,
-      #   it would skip the first 4 rows.
-      # [:select]
-      #   By default, this is <tt>*</tt> as in <tt>SELECT * FROM</tt>, but can be changed if, for example,
-      #   you want to do a join but not include the joined columns. Do not forget to include the primary
-      #   and foreign keys, otherwise it will raise an error.
-      # [:readonly]
-      #   If true, all the associated objects are readonly through the association.
-      # [:validate]
-      #   If +false+, don't validate the associated objects when saving the parent object. +true+ by default.
-      # [:autosave]
-      #   If true, always save the associated objects or destroy them if marked for destruction, when
-      #   saving the parent object.
-      #   If false, never save or destroy the associated objects.
-      #   By default, only save associated objects that are new records.
