Hi,

I created a proxy class like this one:

class SavingProxy
  attr_reader :context
  delegate :class, :to => :context
  delegate :is_a?, :to => :context
  delegate :inspect, :to => :context
  delegate :type, :to => :context
  
  def initialize(context)
    @context  = context
    @messages = []
  end

  def send_if_possible(sym, *args)
    new_context = @context.send(sym, *args) if @context.respond_to? sym
    @context = new_context if @context.class == new_context.class
    new_context
  end
  
  private
    def method_missing(method, *args, &block)
      puts "Sending method #{method} to #{@context.name rescue nil}"
      new_context = @context.send(method, *args, &block)
      @context = new_context if @context.class == new_context.class
      new_context
    ensure
      @messages << [method, args, block, Time.now - start]
    end
  
end

Now my problem is that I would like this proxyclass to behave exactly like the object it proxies

So for example if I did

[4,5,[1,3], SavingProxy.new([2,3])].flatten

I would like to get this:

[4,5,1,3,2,3] 

How could i do that?

I looked a bit and found that in the code for flatten my proxy is not recognized as a n array by rb_check_array_type.

Is it possible to make rb_check_array_type recognize my proxy as an array when my proxy proxies an array? 

Thanks
