What's this?

conditions() public

Consider the following example:

class Person
  has_many :articles
  has_many :comment_tags, :through => :articles
end

class Article
  has_many :comments
  has_many :comment_tags, :through => :comments, :source => :tags
end

class Comment
  has_many :tags
end

There may be conditions on Person.comment_tags, Article.comment_tags and/or Comment.tags, but only Comment.tags will be represented in the #chain. So this method creates an array of conditions corresponding to the chain. Each item in the #conditions array corresponds to an item in the #chain, and is itself an array of conditions from an arbitrary number of relevant reflections, plus any :source_type or polymorphic :as constraints.

          conditions += through_conditions

          # And return
          conditions
        end
      end
