Calling Super Methods in Ruby
I am trying to define some classes in Ruby that have an inheritance hierarchy, but I want to use one of the methods in the base class in the derived class. The twist is that I don't want to call the exact method I'm in, I want to call a different one. The following doesn't work, but it's what I want to do (basically).
class A
def foo
puts 'A::foo'
开发者_C百科 end
end
class B < A
def foo
puts 'B::foo'
end
def bar
super.foo
end
end
Probably, this is what you want?
class A
def foo
puts 'A::foo'
end
end
class B < A
alias bar :foo
def foo
puts 'B::foo'
end
end
B.new.foo # => B::foo
B.new.bar # => A::foo
A more general solution.
class A
def foo
puts "A::foo"
end
end
class B < A
def foo
puts "B::foo"
end
def bar
# slightly oddly ancestors includes the class itself
puts self.class.ancestors[1].instance_method(:foo).bind(self).call
end
end
B.new.foo # => B::foo
B.new.bar # => A::foo
