Subject: [ruby-talk:9714] inheritance problem with postgres extension

 Hello friends.

 I have found a little problem with PostgreSql extension for Ruby. Anybody
 know why this example doesn't work?:

----------------------------------------------------------------	
#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'postgres'

class Conexion < PGconn
	def initialize
	begin
		super('localhost', 5432, '', '', 'foo', 'david', 'lalala')
	rescue PGError
		$stderr.print 'Error: ' << error
	end
	end
end

conn = Conexion.new
p 'All right ;)'
conn.close

exit(0)
----------------------------------------------------------------

 Error I get is:

 	pg.rb:15:in `new': fe_sendauth: no password supplied (PGError)

 		from ./pg.rb:15

 I don't understand why this fails except for a bug. Am i wrong?.

 Thanks.

 								David
