rspec users - Nov 2008 - calling a step from a step

cucumber 0.1.9

I have this:

When /obtain the party (.*)/ do |n|
  n case
    when "common name"
      @party.entity_name = "Anything will do"
    when "legal name"
      @party.entity_legal_name = "Something a Bit Longer I SHOULD
think"
    when "corporate form"
      @party.entity_legal_form = "PERS"
    else
      raise ArgumentError, "#{n} attribute is not provided for."
  end
end

When /should determine the party (.*) do |n|
  When "obtain the party #{n}"
end

# rake features gives this error:

/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`gem_original_require'': ./features/step_definitions/entity_steps.rb:28:
unknown regexp options - rcrd (SyntaxError)
./features/step_definitions/entity_steps.rb:28: syntax error
Then /record the party/ do
                ^
./features/step_definitions/entity_steps.rb:28: syntax error


I understood that as of 0.1.7 cucumber supported steps from step calls.
Have I mistyped or misunderstood something

Missed the next follow on lines. Snippet should be:

When /should determine the party (.*) do |n|
  When "obtain the party #{n}"
end

Then /record the party/ do
  Entity.destroy_all
  @party.save!
end

Another helpful tidbit that I neglected to post.  The reason that I 
focused on the step from step method shown above is that when I comment 
these lines out the following method "Then /record the party/" run
fine.

Missing slash at end of regex

/When /should determine the party (.*)/

It looks like you are not closing your regexp here:
> When /should determine the party (.*) do |n|
>   When "obtain the party #{n}"
> end
So it doesn''t close until it gets here, where you are trying to start a
new
one:
> Then /record the party/ do
>   Entity.destroy_all
>   @party.save!
> end
And then is treating ''record'' as options to the regexp and not
recognizing
some of them
