Hi gurus and nubys,
The problem I'm facing is:
I wanto to use a subclass of TCPSocket.
Everything works fine while I'm using it to connect outside.
But now I'd like to use a MySocket even when I'm receiving
connections.
BTW, TCPServer.accept just gives me a classic vanilla TCPSocket.
now I have 3 way to go:
-add methods to TCPSocket instead of subclass it
-add a MyServer class as a subclass of TCPServer
-wriap up a TCPSocket in a MySocket class instead of subclassing it.
My point is: this ways are ugly to me.
So, is there a way in ruby to get a subclass instance from a
superclass instance?
I know that often this could be impossible, but who knows ;)
something like:
class MyKlass < Klass
...
end
MyKlass.get_instance_from(Klass.new)
