From: "Konrad K." Date: 2011-01-05T21:10:25+09:00 Subject: mixin technique overrides variables Take a look at code bellow: module Parent1 def initialize @loc1 = 1 @loc2 = 2 end end class Parent2 def initialize @loc3 = 3 @loc4 = 4 end def displayp2 puts @loc3 puts @loc4 end end class Child < Parent2 include Parent1 def displayc puts @loc1 puts @loc2 puts @loc3 puts @loc4 end end c = Child.new c.displayc I was thinking of something similar to multiple inheritance and my expectaions was that all of local variables will be available in Child class. What I discovered that when you add include Parent1 line to Child class @loc3 and @loc4 disappears. When you comment this line @loc3 and @loc4 are available in Child class. My question is why this work that way and how to get all of @loc available in Child class? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
