Why is enumObj.find_all deprecated? It's a Ruby method

Rails

I just saw the deprecation message for enumObj.find_all appear in the
Irb environment…

DEPRECATION WARNING: find_all is deprecated and will be removed from
Rails 2.0 (use find(:all, …) instead) See http://
www.rubyonrails.org/deprecation for details.

I thought find_all was a Ruby method. At least I’ve been using it
thinking it was, according to the Ruby documentation…

I think you must be using ActiveRecord#find_all instead there. Rails
can’t
deprecate Ruby code. If you read the deprecation warning it’s clear that
it’s talking about removing find_all from Rails. I ran across some
similar
confusion with Enumerable#find and just started using
Enumerable#select/detect instead which cleared things right up.
