Hi there,

is there anyway of determining whether a given method is a method written
in C or if it's written in Ruby?

Many thanks,

You can read the source code...

Seriously: what do you need that for? IMHO it's on purpose that you
cannot distinguish them: that way they integrate seemingly.

Kind regards

ParseTree can only get the source for ruby methods. There's no built-in way to make this distinction.
