Rails - Jan 2006 - render :partial stops setting local variables.

I''m not sure what happened, or what change has caused this to happen,
but
render :partial (or any render for that matter, doesn''t seem to let me
set
local variables via the local_assigns argument hash.

for example

<%= render :partial ''edit'', :username => @user.username
%>

used to allow that username was a local variable in my _edit.rhtml partial
template.
example:

<p><b>Username:</b> <%= username %></p>

Could this be a problem with Ruby 1.8.4?

Tried it on Ruby 1.8.2 and it still fails... Is there soem sort of
environment setting that controls how varaibles get passed in the render
method? This used to work fine, yestrday, but suddenly today, on all my
machines this stopped working.

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.

I believe you want:

<%= render :partial ''edit'', :locals => {:username =>
@user.username} %>

Ahhh thanks.. Thats it!

I take it that api.rubyonrails.com isn''t up to date.
http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionView/Base.html#M000468
show this still
*render*(options = {}, old_local_assigns = {})

I also tried the previous way containing the two hash arguments in curly
braces, it still ignored the local assigns.

 I just wonder why this was working fine before, and then suddenly stopped
working?
