- <p>The interface method creates an interface module which typically sets a
233
- list of methods that must be defined in the including class or module. If
234
- the methods are not defined, an <a
235
- href="Interface/MethodMissing.html">Interface::MethodMissing</a> error is
236
- raised.</p>
237
-
238
- <p>A interface can extend an existing interface as well. These are called
239
- sub-interfaces, and they can included the rules for their parent interface
240
- by simply extending it.</p>

101
- <pre>This module provides Java style interfaces for Ruby, including a fairly
102
- similar syntax. I don&#39;t necessarily believe in interfaces, but I wanted to
103
- put it out there as proof that it could be done. Frankly, Java needs mixins
104
- more than Ruby needs interfaces, but here you go.</pre>

149
- <pre>Subinterfaces work as well. See the test_sub.rb file under the &#39;test&#39;
150
- directory for a sample.
151
- Since the `check_interface` and `check_class` methods are meant to be
152
- invoked for every invocation of a method, there is a runtime overhead
153
- associated which may not be desirable in production. Hence these methods
154
- are guarded by an environment variable RUBY_INTERFACE_TYPECHECK. Unless
155
- this variable is set to 1, the check methods are defined as empty methods.</pre>

159
- <pre>On a Macbook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5 machine, adding a check
160
- method costs about 1 second for every million calls. YMMV. It is advisable
161
- to benchmark for your code to determine if the overhead is acceptable in
162
- your enviroment.</pre>

166
- <pre>A discussion on IRC with Mauricio Fernandez got us talking about traits.
167
- During that discussion I remembered a blog entry by David Naseby. I
168
- revisited his blog entry and took a closer look:
169
-
170
- http://ruby-naseby.blogspot.com/2008/11/traits-in-ruby.html
171
-
172
- Keep in mind that I also happened to be thinking about Java at the moment
173
- because of a recent job switch that involved coding in Java. I was also
174
- trying to figure out what the purpose of interfaces were.
175
-
176
- As I read the first page of David Naseby&#39;s article I realized that,
177
- whether intended or not, he had implemented a rudimentary form of interfaces
178
- for Ruby. When I discovered this, I talked about it some more with Mauricio
179
- and he and I (mostly him) fleshed out the rest of the module, including some
180
- syntax improvements. The result is syntax and functionality that is nearly
181
- identical to Java.
182
-
183
- I should note that, although I am listed as the author, this was mostly the
184
- combined work of David Naseby and Mauricio Fernandez. I just happened to be
185
- the guy that put it all together.</pre>
