class RSpec::Mocks::ArgumentListMatcher

Wrapper for matching arguments against a list of expected values. Used by the `with` method on a `MessageExpectation`:

object.should_receive(:message).with(:a, 'b', 3)
object.message(:a, 'b', 3)

Values passed to `with` can be literal values or argument matchers that match against the real objects .e.g.

object.should_receive(:message).with(hash_including(:a => 'b'))

Can also be used directly to match the contents of any `Array`. This enables 3rd party mocking libs to take advantage of rspec's argument matching without using the rest of rspec-mocks.

require 'rspec/mocks/argument_list_matcher'
include RSpec::Mocks::ArgumentMatchers

arg_list_matcher = RSpec::Mocks::ArgumentListMatcher.new(123, hash_including(:a => 'b'))
arg_list_matcher.args_match?(123, :a => 'b')
