Public Instance Methods

delegate(method_name, opts = {}) click to toggle source
A method to easily delegate methods to an object, stored in an
instance variable or returned by a method call.

It's used like this:
  class A
    delegate :method_here, :@obj, :method_there
  end
or:
  class A
    delegate :method_here, :method_call, :method_there
  end

_other_method_name_ defaults to method_name, if it wasn't given.
