I would like to be able to null.methods, null.freeze etc. What do you think?

avdi commented 11 years ago

You mean you want them to have their original meaning? Or you want them to be stubbed?

dragosmiron commented 11 years ago

I was thinking to have original meaning. Right now every method (almost) return nil.

avdi commented 11 years ago

This is dependent on the base class you use. By default BasicObject is used, so those have no "original" meaning, because they aren't defined at all.

I just merged a change that lets you explicitly set the base class to Object if you want.
