Asp Forum - DelegateClass vs. Extending

I was looking at DelegateClass example:

class Tempfile < DelegateClass(File)
# constant and class member data initialization...

def initialize(basename, tmpdir=Dir::tmpdir)
# build up file path/name in var tmpname...

@tmpfile = File.open(tmpname, File::RDWR|File::CREAT|File::EXCL,
0600)

# ...

super(@tmpfile)

# below this point, all methods of File are supported...
end

# ...
end

and was wondering what is the advantage of doing this and not just
extending the File class? Thanks.

So what?

It is funny watching you dance to try and defend the fact you scrounge
of the state, friends and family. You would think eating less would
do you good:

But no, you demand that people feed your fat face and sit around on
your lard ass looking for others like you to support your position.

But then you need not look far. Ohio has the third highest people on
welfare in the states. So you only need pop round to the neighbours
to find a fellow scrounger.

Democrats Want No Part of Paul Ryan's Mandatory Spending Ceiling
December 30, 2010
By Maggie 4 comments so far
Since everyone agrees cutting spending is the first mission of both parties
(yeah, right), we might think House Democrats would embrace the House Budget
Committee Chairman-elect, Paul Ryan, setting a spending ceiling that cannot
be breached, and will not be subject to a vote on the floor. At least we
would have a budget, which the 111th Congress failed to provide. But they
want no part of a mandatory spending ceiling. Instead, they accuse
Republicans of "a lack of transparency," and being "arrogant." See Paul Ryan
at work in the video below, with Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

Rep. Paul Ryan

From The Hill:

Republicans argue allowing the Budget chairman to set spending ceilings is
necessary because of the failure of the last Congress to approve a budget
last year.

"This provision is only necessary because of Democrats' historic failure
to pass a budget last year. They have nothing but their own ineptitude to
blame for this temporary authority," Brendan Buck, a spokesman for the House
Republican transition, said in response to the Van Hollen statement.

Another House aide argued the powers are not unprecedented. The GOP gave
the chairman of the House similar powers in the opening days of the 1999
Congress, when the GOP also controlled the chamber.

The rule change is set for a vote soon after January 5th, 2011.
