34: *
35: * In your view: $this->Flash->render('somekey');
36: * Will default to flash if no param is passed
37: *
38: * You can pass additional information into the flash message generation. This allows you
39: * to consolidate all the parameters for a given type of flash message into the view.
40: *
41: * ```
42: * echo $this->Flash->render('flash', array('params' => array('name' => $user['User']['name'])));
43: * ```
44: *
45: * This would pass the current user's name into the flash message, so you could create personalized
46: * messages without the controller needing access to that data.
47: *
48: * Lastly you can choose the element that is used for rendering the flash message. Using
49: * custom elements allows you to fully customize how flash messages are generated.
50: *
51: * ```
52: * echo $this->Flash->render('flash', array('element' => 'my_custom_element'));
53: * ```
54: *
55: * If you want to use an element from a plugin for rendering your flash message
56: * you can use the dot notation for the plugin's element name:
57: *
58: * ```
59: * echo $this->Flash->render('flash', array(
60: * 'element' => 'MyPlugin.my_custom_element',
61: * ));
62: * ```
63: *
64: * @param string $key The [Message.]key you are rendering in the view.
65: * @param array $options Additional options to use for the creation of this flash message.
66: * Supports the 'params', and 'element' keys that are used in the helper.
67: * @return string|null Rendered flash message or null if flash key does not exist
68: * in session.
69: * @throws UnexpectedValueException If value for flash settings key is not an array.
