acts_as_state_machine named scopes

If you are using the acts_as_state_machine plugin, this will generate all named scopes for your various states.

Place it after the acts_as_state_machine and state declarations.

class Task < ActiveRecord::Base
  acts_as_state_machine :initial => :waiting
  state :waiting
  state :running
  state :finished    

  states.each { |s| named_scope s, :conditions => { :state => s.to_s } }
end

Then doing a Task.waiting will return the corresponding tasks.
