If your routes are set up in the default RESTful style, then you
should just be able to call:

<%= link_to 'show', object %>

...and the routing system will get what you mean. If things are more
complicated, you may need of the other solutions here. Or, you could
call a named route like this:

<%= link_to 'show', send("#{some expression that gives you the name}
_path", object) %>

but the previous example seems much cleaner.
