Rails 2.1.0 Monkey Patch To Add The Recognized Or Matched Rails Route To The Request

        This was based on code I found here from Chris Cruft - http://cho.hapgoods.com/wordpress/?p=151

Enhanced to support rails 2.1.0 and also allows alias method chains for recognize from other plugins still to work.

module ActionController
  class AbstractRequest
    attr_reader :recognized_route
    
    def init_recognized_route_from_path_parameters
      recognized_route = path_parameters.delete(:recognized_route) 
    end
  end

  module Routing
    
    class RouteSet
      def recognize_with_route(request)
        result = recognize_without_route(request)
        request.init_recognized_route_from_path_parameters
        result
      end
      alias_method_chain :recognize, :route

      def write_recognize_optimized_with_route
        tree = segment_tree(routes)
        body = generate_code(tree)
        instance_eval %{
          def recognize_optimized(path, env)
            segments = to_plain_segments(path)
            index = #{body}
            return nil unless index
            while index < routes.size
              result = routes[index].recognize(path, env) and result[:recognized_route] = routes[index] and return result
              index += 1
            end
            nil
          end
        }, __FILE__, __LINE__
      end
      alias_method_chain :write_recognize_optimized, :route

    end
  end
end
