Note: metadata created using profile version 1.2 is compatible with that created under version 1.3 other than that the records may have been completed inconsistently and therefore may fail the version 1.3 conformance checking rules.
In Ruby names starting with uppercase letters are constants. When you use a reference to a constant in a method, that refers to the constant defined in the class. If you make a subclass, the method was inherited to the subclass, but the constant is still resolved against the superclass where the method was originally defined in.
If that is undesirable, we can use "self.class::NAME" synatax to refer to find the constant defined in the class in which the method is really used.
Tested in Ruby 1.8.5:
$ cat test.rb
class A
Config = "constant in class A"
def initialize
p self.class.name
p Config
p self.class::Config
end
end
class B < A
Config = "constant in class B"
end
A.new
B.new
$ ruby test.rb
"A"
"constant in class A"
"constant in class A"
"B"
"constant in class A"
"constant in class B"
