this question is mostly for the folks at rb, but i'd appreciate
anyone's input. i was under the impression rb's Address Of call
only worked with module methods, but i just d/led code from
someone who uses it with a class method. is this allowed now?
is it officially supported, or is this a case of lucky accident
i shouldn't use?
I believe it's not unsupported.
That's a good way to put it.
It's not an accident that you can get the address of an instance
method. I'm not sure that there's anything useful you can do with
such an address, but if you can think of something, well, have at it.
I think he's talking about shared methods, with which one can do
something useful.
no i'm speaking of instance methods... what i end up doing a lot is
having many status callbacks from declares which all get sent to a
module currently, and it messages the appropriate class instance,
with this i should be able to setup the callback to directly call the
proper instance.
or think a carbon timer class, that registers the callback to call
itself back so i can have something akin to an action event, rather
than having one carbon timer module... much cleaner.
