From: Tobias Jonch Date: 2005-12-23T21:23:14+09:00 Subject: Displaying object variables, not obj ID ------=_Part_11884_446215.1135340581206 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline I'm having problems with displaying an object correctly. I keep getting the obj's ID back, like this: sendto("Chromosomes: " + p.c_chromosomes.to_s) # sort of 'puts' =3D> Chromosomes: # Checking with the Pickaxe, I see they have a solution (no obvious explanation though), where they suggest redifining to_s to accomodate its purpose in their 'song' class. This is no good for me though, as to_s will be used to display a lot of things, not just chromosomes. Uhm. I feel like I should provide more info to ensure an accurate answer, but I'm not sure what or how much is necessary. Perhaps that the variable actually saves right in the yaml file: ... c_chromosomes: !ruby/object:Chromosome c_chromosomes: # hash of arrays symmetry: [] ... Any insights would be much appreciated.
