Summary: partials with locals

Initial Comment:
Here's a potential fix for the view specs.  The problem was tests like this:

  specify "blah" do
    widget = mock("widget")
    render "/path/to/_partial", :locals => {:widget => widget}
  end

The view ViewEvalContext seems to expect all renders to be full templates.  Normally it's not a problem but in this case I'm using the :locals options which is not applied to :template rendering.

So I tried this:
    render :partial => "/path/to/partial", :locals => {:widget => widget}

But that failed because ViewEvalContext is expecting :templates.  I was able to get it to work by modifying ViewEvalContext a tiny bit:

Original:
	@controller.add_helper_for(options[:template])

Modified:
        @controller.add_helper_for(options[:template]) if options[:template]
        @controller.add_helper_for(options[:partial]) if options[:partial]

To complete a spec, the partial template might look like this:
<%= widget.to_s %>

Any chance this could be added to trunk?

Hi Micah,

Could you modify the RSpec demo app and other files and create a patch file for us? svn patch > patch_for_partials_with_locals.diff
