Hi all,

This is ruby-dev summary 24298-24353.


[ruby-dev:24302] Invoke Proc object with any method name

Nowake proposed that a Proc object should be invoked with
any method name like that:

	m = Proc.new( :to_s ) { 'test1' }
	p m.to_s   # => 'test1'

This scheme is enabled with following code:

	class MethodProc < Proc
	  def initialize( *method_name, &procedure )
	    super( &procedure )
	    m = Module.new
	    method_name.each do | i |
	      m.__send__( :define_method, i, &procedure )
	    end
	    self.extend( m )
	  end
	end

He made a point that it is helphul that a Proc object can
be handled as polymorphic.

Matz amazed about this idea. This issue is still open.
