Description
I propose to make Object#send
and Object#method
private.
- If someone wants to use public
#send
or#method
with their class, they can easily opt in :
class MyClass
public :send, :method
end
They can also use
BasicObject#__send__
. (There is however a mismatch betweenBasicObject#__send__
andKernel#__method__
.)There is hardly any good reason IMO to use public
#send
or#method
with someone else's classes.I am trying to never call
#send
or#method
with an explicit receiver, but since#send
and#method
are public anyway, i feel that my code will be under-appreciated if someone looks at it.
