Overview

This class is responsible for defining methods at runtime.

TODO: all events, simple or complex, should get the same method signature simple events will be called as: event_name! nil, *args complex events will be called as: event_name! :state, *args

Constructor Details

#initialize(_binding) ⇒ MethodFactory

.prepare_class_machine(klass, machine, name, options) ⇒ Object

This should be called once per machine bound to a class. It defines methods for the machine as standard methods, if the machine is the default machine or the options passed to the machine include :define_methods => true .

Note this happens when a machine is first bound to the class, not when StateFu is included.

Instance Method Details

#install! ⇒ Object

Define the same helper methods on the StateFu::Binding and its object. Any existing methods will not be tampered with, but a warning will be issued in the logs if any methods cannot be defined.
