ruby module include , class send

in rails's codes there is a wondful use of ruby module,just see following codes:

module MyTools
  def run(*args)
    puts "let #{args.join(' ')} run"
  end
end
class Klass
  def hello(*args)

    "Hello " + args.join(' ')
  end
end
class TryTools
  #include MyTools
  def initialize()
    self.class.send :include,MyTools
  end
end
k = Klass.new
k.send :hello, "gentle", "readers"   #=> "Hello gentle readers"
c=TryTools.new
c.run("me")

Notes:

A couple of points about the include statement before we go on. First, it has nothing to do with files. C programmers use a preprocessor directive called #include to insert the contents of one file into another during compilation. The Ruby include statement simply makes a reference to a named module. If that module is in a separate file, you must use require to drag that file in before using include. Second, a Ruby include does not simply copy the module's instance methods into the class. Instead, it makes a reference from the class to the included module. If multiple classes include that module, they'll all point to the same thing. If you change the definition of a method within a module, even while your program is running, all classes that include that module will exhibit the new behavior.[Of course, we're speaking only of methods here. Instance variables are always per-object, for example.]

another words:



The extend method will mix a module’s methods at the class level. The method defined in the Math module can be used as a class/static method.

The include method will mix a module’s methods at the instance level, meaning that the methods will become instance methods.

hpricot docs

recently I can not access the offical website of hpricot , https://code.whytheluckystiff.net/hpricot/ .
this is a RDoc reference here:

Debugging Ruby and ROR

1,install rdebug, sudo gem install ruby-debug
2,command line for debugging ruby file , rdebug rubyscript.rb
3,tips for debugging rails app , insert 'debugger' statement into your code where the code you want to check
4,run ./script/server --debugger,then the app will trap into rdebug when execution flow encounters the 'debugger' statement.

Ruby dynamic syntax checking

From the file sample/test.rb in the Ruby source code distribution:

def valid_syntax?(code, fname)
eval("BEGIN {return true}\n#{code}", nil, fname, 0)
rescue Exception
puts $!.message
false
end
