There is a problem in the realm of Ruby metaprogramming" objects can be liars. You see, there is no guaruntee that the return value of a method is the "truth". Any object can play dirty tricks.
string = "Watch this..."
def string.class
nil
end
string.class #=> nil
We are never going to know what the mirror class of that object is by asking it. So what can we do?
I've decided I could at least provide my own library that provides some of the functionality.
require 'mirror'
Mirror[string].class #=> String
Putting the old RubyGems to work:
$ gem install mirror
