+# forwardable.rb -
+# $Release Version: 1.1$
+# $Revision$
+# by Keiju ISHITSUKA(keiju@ishitsuka.com)
+# original definition by delegator.rb
+# Revised by Daniel J. Berger with suggestions from Florian Gross.
+#
+# Documentation by James Edward Gray II and Gavin Sinclair
+
+
+
+# The Forwardable module provides delegation of specified
+# methods to a designated object, using the methods #def_delegator
+# and #def_delegators.
+#
+# For example, say you have a class RecordCollection which
+# contains an array <tt>@records</tt>. You could provide the lookup method
+# #record_number(), which simply calls #[] on the <tt>@records</tt>
+# array, like this:
+#
+# require 'forwardable'
+#
+# class RecordCollection
+# attr_accessor :records
+# extend Forwardable
+# def_delegator :@records, :[], :record_number
+# end
+#
+# We can use the lookup method like so:
+#
+# r = RecordCollection.new
+# r.records = [4,5,6]
+# r.record_number(0) # => 4
+#
+# Further, if you wish to provide the methods #size, #<<, and #map,
+# all of which delegate to @records, this is how you can do it:
+#
+# class RecordCollection # re-open RecordCollection class
+# def_delegators :@records, :size, :<<, :map
+# end
+#
+# r = RecordCollection.new
+# r.records = [1,2,3]
+# r.record_number(0) # => 1
+# r.size # => 3
+# r << 4 # => [1, 2, 3, 4]
+# r.map { |x| x * 2 } # => [2, 4, 6, 8]
+#
+# You can even extend regular objects with Forwardable.
+#
+# my_hash = Hash.new
+# my_hash.extend Forwardable # prepare object for delegation
+# my_hash.def_delegator "STDOUT", "puts" # add delegation for STDOUT.puts()
+# my_hash.puts "Howdy!"
+#
+# == Another example
+#
+# You could use Forwardable as an alternative to inheritance, when you don't want
+# to inherit all methods from the superclass. For instance, here is how you might
+# add a range of +Array+ instance methods to a new class +Queue+:
+#
+# class Queue
+# extend Forwardable
+#
+# def initialize
+# @q = [ ] # prepare delegate object
+# end
+#
+# # setup preferred interface, enq() and deq()...
+# def_delegator :@q, :push, :enq
+# def_delegator :@q, :shift, :deq
+#
+# # support some general Array methods that fit Queues well
+# def_delegators :@q, :clear, :first, :push, :shift, :size
+# end
+#
+# q = Thread::Queue.new
+# q.enq 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
+# q.push 6
+#
+# q.shift # => 1
+# while q.size > 0
+# puts q.deq
+# end
+#
+# q.enq "Ruby", "Perl", "Python"
+# puts q.first
+# q.clear
+# puts q.first
+#
+# This should output:
+#
+# 2
+# 3
+# 4
+# 5
+# 6
+# Ruby
+# nil
+#
+# == Notes
+#
+# Be advised, RDoc will not detect delegated methods.
+#
+# +forwardable.rb+ provides single-method delegation via the def_delegator and
+# def_delegators methods. For full-class delegation via DelegateClass, see
+# +delegate.rb+.
