module

How do I properly encapsulate methods in sub-modules in Ruby? My methods won't appear anywhere!

I've written a very basic finance module in Ruby to ease my own calculations, as sometimes it's just a lot easier to enter irb and start calling functions. But the odd thing is, that in my module I have a submodule with a method called future_value (Finance::CompoundInterest.future_value) ... but according to irb it doesn't exist? It's...

Extend for one block call only

I have a class that contains some private attributes. What I would like to do is to dynamically add some setters for these only for the execution of a specific block. Example of what I would like to be able to: class Content attr_reader :a, :b def initialize @a = 1 @b = "plop" end def set(&block) extend(Setter) ...

overridden styles for flex module

Can a flex module have styles different from the main application which loads the modules? Meaning... can I have a main set of styles for the application, and separate styles for each module.. with each of them rendering their own styles without disturbing the other at runtime?

Does "use ...." at the top add overhead to a Perl script?

I've always wondered this. I have a habit of always adding use strict; use warnings; use Data::Dumper; to the top of every script I write. Does this add overhead if I don't even use the Dumper function? Also, in most cases Data::Dumper was called earlier in another package but I need it in this package so I include it again. In thi...

modular block design

I have two separate functions, bar() and foo(). The execution flow of my program supposed to be as follows: input -> bar() -> foo() -> output Currently, a teammate of mine on the same development team made a foo() call inside the bar() function, which destroyed the modularity design. While it's better from modular design perspective to...

ModuleBase vs. Module

Does anyone have insight into when to use mx.modules.ModuleBase over mx.modules.Module? The documentation that I have seen isn't very clear on what each was designed for. What do they mean by "interacts with the framework" exactly? Does it just come down to visual vs. non visual components? Obviously a BaseModule which doesn't interact w...

How do I use MS C++ Express 2008 to build Perl Unicode::Map on Windows?

I am currently trying to make the Unicode-Map-0.112 module, but encounter an error, '0x1', that is evidently related to using nmake.

Multimodularized Pages in a PHP application

Hello, I'm currently writing an application that works with modules. The module part is all okay, but I am not entirely clear on what would be the best approach to display multiple modules on a same page. The way common MVC like systems could work is that an URL like "site.com/article/full/18543/how-to-lose-weight" (I'm not implying any...

python importing relative modules

hi, I have the Python modules a.py and b.py in the same directory. How can I reliably import b.py from a.py, given that a.py may have been imported from another directory or executed directly? This module will be distributed so I can't hardcode a single path. I've been playing around with __file__, sys.path and os.chdir, but it feels m...
