Re: How to pass a given block to a subroutine

s/yield/block/g
Sorry for not check it.
Apologize for the error, i think yield be in object or kernel.
In my code i called "block" when i type "yield", once i change it i
found that yield not respond to overload it :-(

It's a way to overload it or it has a callback associated?

IMHO i think this help to encapsulate the complexity of a given set of
functions to the caller.
The caller only have to call yield without care of what work is done
behind.
Currently i'am trying(i'm newbie to ruby) to create some kind of plugin
system.
My idea is to make the creation of plugins easy, or at least no very
complex.
The plugin manager search for .rb files in a directory, load it, and
wait for the client request a service. 
Manager check if the service is avalaible, and call it if is possible.
For this is the needed storage of procs in the plugin manager(for this
and for:
plug.request("repaint_wait") {
   plug.request("all_components"){ |p|
     p.repaint
   }
}
)
In this scenario will be good to the plugin writer not care the name of
the special method i wrote to subtitute "yield" method.
With the overload yield the code will be (IMHO) more flexible supporting
several steps between "request" and final function in a tranparent way.
Anyway "block" it's no so bad :-)
