Subject: newbie problem with Ruby

Hi there,

just getting to know the language by writing console twitter client, I'm
getting this error:

        ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)
  from ./twitter_client.rb:7:in `initialize'
  from ./twitter_client.rb:7:in `new'
  from ./twitter_client.rb:7
  from (irb):1:in `require'
  from (irb):1

When trying to load the code below.

class TwitterMethod
  Statuses = TwitterMethod.new("statuses/show")

  attr_reader :credentials
  attr_writer :credentials

  TwitterHome = "http://www.twitter.com/"


  def initialize(methodLocation)
    @methodUrlString = methodLocation
  end

public
  def call()
    response
    Net::HTTP.start(TwitterHome).start{|http|
      request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(@methodUrlString)
      @credentials.sign(request)
      response = http.request(request)
    }
    return JSON.parse(response)
  end

end



I can't work out what is going wrong here, I am guessing that its
something to do with the class not being initialized by the time I call
TwitterMethod.new to set the class constant. I also don't know if this
is a particularly rubyish way to do this, please let me know if theres a
better way.

Cheers
Alex
