New dependencies code - any docs?

Rails
1

Any docs on the new dependencies stuff? I realize it follows the
conventions Rails follows, so a top level directory foo contains a
module Foo, which then includes the required files that are in child
directories.

However, I’m looking for stuff like - does this work in any directory
w/i Rails, or only w/i /app? What will happen if you have two trees
setup, one in /lib for instance and one in /test. Anyone know where
to look for that besides the code?

    I should clarify what I’m talking about here: when I say
    “dependencies”, I’m referring to the new reloading/magical-loading of
    things by hooking into const_missing and and related methods. It was
    discussed here:

http://weblog.rubyonrails.orgv/2006/8/11/reloading-revamped

But I don’t see anything on what conventions it follows. For example,
if I’m in a model file and try to use “NameSpace::Foo::Bar”, what
directory structure will Rails assume when it goes looking for the
matching files?

Think Java, where all the normal Rails directories are in the
CLASSPATH. No NameSpace::Foo::Bar will be a file called bar.rb in a
directory name_space/foo, somewhere in the Rails tree (say, under lib/)
