## Use

Typically, `findAll` is implemented with a "string" or [http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/#jQuery-ajax-settings ajax settings object] like:

```
findAll: "GET /tasks"
```
    
or

```
findAll: {url: "/tasks", dataType: "custom"}
```

[can-model.setup] converts this into an AJAX-ready function using [can-model.makeFindAll].
