(Note the quotes.) Ruby's protection scheme is not intended to procted the encapsulated data from all "wrong" access. This is true of many object oriented langauages. Private data is just mostly private. Note that you can also access private/protected methods using send. Access using send or eval may indicate that you might wish to redesign your objects, but may just be a one time need. Note that C++ has the friend keyword that does something similiar. Its just with ruby you always have friends ;). Last time I looked, Python had a similiar "security bug" via __dict__. -- Alan Chen Digikata LLC http://digikata.com
