Struct.new( [
aString
] [, aSym
]+
)
-> CustomerClass
|
|
Creates a new class, named by aString, containing
accessor methods for the given symbols.
If the name aString is omitted, an anonymous structure
class will be created. Otherwise, the name of this struct will
appear as a constant in class Struct, so it must be unique
for all Structs in the system and should start with a
capital letter.
Struct.new
returns a new Class object, which can then be used
to create specific instances of the new structure.
The remaining methods listed below (class and instance) are
defined for this generated class. See the description that follows
for an example.

CustomerClass.new( [
anObject
]+
)
-> CustomerInst
|
|
Creates a new instance. The number of actual parameters must be
less than or equal to the number of attributes defined for this
class; unset parameters default to nil. Passing too many
parameters will raise an ArgumentError.

==
|
CustomerInst == anOtherStruct
-> true or false
|
|
Equality---Returns true if anOtherStruct is equal to this
one: they must be of the same class as generated by
Struct.new
, and the values of
all instance variables must be equal (according to
Object#==
).

|
CustomerInst[ aSymbol ] -> anObject
CustomerInst[ anInteger ] -> anObject
|
|
Attribute Reference---Returns the value of the instance variable
named by aSymbol, or indexed (0..length-1) by
anInteger. Will raise NameError if the named
variable does not exist, or IndexError if the index is out of range.
Customer = Struct.new( "Customer", :name, :address, :zip )

CustomerInst[ aSymbol ] = anObject -> anObject
CustomerInst[ anInteger ] = anObject -> anObject
|
|
Attribute Assignment---Assigns to the instance variable named by
aSymbol or anInteger
the value anObject and returns it. Will raise
a NameError if the named variable does not exist, or an
IndexError if the index is out of range.

each
|
CustomerInst.each {| anObject | block }
-> CustomerInst
|
|
Calls block once for each instance variable, passing the
value as a parameter.
Customer = Struct.new( "Customer", :name, :address, :zip )
joe = Customer.new( "Joe Smith", "123 Maple, Anytown NC", 12345 )
joe.each {|x| puts(x) }

produces:
Joe Smith
