Subject: Re: object_* and instance_* methods

another issue:

5) Doesn't encapsulate the original object.

I can offer a solution to that, though it still suffers some of the
other problems. I haven't tested this but it should work (and if not,
it can be fixed to do so):


  require 'facets/more/namespace'

  class Object

    namespace :meta do

      def send(obj, meth, *args)
        Object.instance_method(:send).bind(obj).call(meth, *args)
      end

      def class(obj)
        Object.instance_method(:class).bind(obj).call
      end

      # etc
    end

  end

  class Foo
    def send(*args)
      "whoo!"
    end
    def class
      "stupid!"
    end
  end

  f = Foo.new

  puts f.class             # stupid!
  puts f.meta.class        # Foo

  puts f.send(:object_id)                # whoo!
  puts f.send(:meta).send(:object_id)    # -605608944
