I guess my point is there is alot of mistrust in the 'corporate' world as to whether dynamic/scripty languages are suitable for million+ LOC projects. Type safety seems to be a big selling point at that scale, so being able to 'componentise' chunks of ruby by limiting coupling to using rigid interfaces might assuage some of that concern. Of course after the code executes post interface all bets are off with mutable classes/objects, allthough Object.freeze probably needs a bit of publicity here. thanks for your response! cheers lyndon -- Into RFID? www.rfidnewsupdate.com Simple, fast, news.
