module ActiveSupport
  # Implements a hash where keys <tt>:foo</tt> and <tt>"foo"</tt> are considered
  # to be the same.
  #
  #   rgb = ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess.new
  #
  #   rgb[:black] = '#000000'
  #   rgb[:black]  # => '#000000'
  #   rgb['black'] # => '#000000'
  #
  #   rgb['white'] = '#FFFFFF'
  #   rgb[:white]  # => '#FFFFFF'
  #   rgb['white'] # => '#FFFFFF'
  #
  # Internally symbols are mapped to strings when used as keys in the entire
  # writing interface (calling <tt>[]=</tt>, <tt>merge</tt>, etc). This
  # mapping belongs to the public interface. For example, given:
  #
  #   hash = ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess.new(a: 1)
  #
  # You are guaranteed that the key is returned as a string:
  #
  #   hash.keys # => ["a"]
  #
  # Technically other types of keys are accepted:
  #
  #   hash = ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess.new(a: 1)
  #   hash[0] = 0
  #   hash # => {"a"=>1, 0=>0}
  #
  # but this class is intended for use cases where strings or symbols are the
  # expected keys and it is convenient to understand both as the same. For
  # example the +params+ hash in Ruby on Rails.
  #
  # Note that core extensions define <tt>Hash#with_indifferent_access</tt>:
  #
  #   rgb = { black: '#000000', white: '#FFFFFF' }.with_indifferent_access
  #
  # which may be handy.
  class HashWithIndifferentAccess < Hash
    # Returns +true+ so that <tt>Array#extract_options!</tt> finds members of
    # this class.
