= Using

Automatically require files based on constant name and file name.  Saves you the
hassle of adding to $LOAD_PATH or using File.dirname(__FILE__) all over the place.

Also allows you to swap easily between require, load, and autoload within a drop of the hat.


== Usage

in a file named ella.rb:

  module Ella
    extend Using
    using :Foo     #=> require "ella/foo"
    using :FooBar  #=> require "ella/foo_bar"
  end

The default load scheme is require.  You can change the load scheme globally
with Using.default_load_scheme = :autoload or Using.default_load_scheme = :load

  Using.default_load_scheme = :autoload
  
  using :Foo    #=> autoload :Foo,    "ella/foo"
  using :FooBar #=> autoload :FooBar, "ella/foo_bar"

Or, say, you need to require just one file, but autoload the rest:

  module MyProj
    Using.default_load_scheme = :autoload
    extend Using
   
    with_load_scheme :require do
      using :Errors
    end
    
    using :Routing
    using :Action
    using :Support
    using :Configuration
    using :RenderingEngines
    using :ApplicationHelpers
    using :Application
  end
