does anyone know what’s happened to this? This is about openstruct picking up a defined method when the same name is passed to openstruct send method. I ran into this problem with ruby 1.8.5 and I found in the above thread that it was a known anomaly. It seems that Matz intended to fix it. Still pending or I should use openstruct differently?
In addition to that, although might be related, I don’t know, it seems that openstruct also picks up method from module.
This one works as expected:
def foo
“foo”
end
OpenStruct.new.foo
=> nil
This one does not:
module Foo
def foo
“foo”
end
end
include Foo
OpenStruct.new.foo
=> foo
This is surely an anomaly too, is it not?
