Subject: array of objects within an object

Hi all,

I am storing an array of objects within another object, but am not
sure how to print the values of the array out.  When I do an
Port.inspect, it gives me something like this:

#<Port:0x4021de58 @state=[#<State:0x4021dca0 @state="1">,
#<State:0x4021d8f4 @state="2">], @protocol="tcp",
@owner=[#<Owner:0x4021d9a8 @name="11">, #<Owner:0x4021d854
@name="12">>


But when I do a Port.print_port, defined as

  def print_port 
    "Port: #{@protocol}, #{@state}, #{@owner} " 
  end

it prints:

Port: tcp, #<State:0x4021dcc8>#<State:0x4021d8cc>,
#<Owner:0x4021d9d0>#<Owner:0x4021d82c>

So, How do I address the object with the ID of #<State:0x4021dcc8>,
and print out its constituent values?

thanks for any help.
