From: "Mean L." Date: 2012-10-19T22:40:39+09:00 Subject: would it make sense for "def method" instance evaled on a class to create an instance method? def in a class definition (where self is the class) creates an instance method. class Class1 def method1 end end Class1.new.method1 but if instance evaled on Class1, creates a singleton method. Class1.instance_eval do def method2 end end should there perhaps be an exception for classes (for non classes a singleton method is the only option), where an unqualified def would create an instance method, same as in class definition? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
