=head1 NAME

Rubyish::Object - the parent class of all classes in Rubyish

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This implements the "Object" class in ruby.

Baiscally if you are defining a Rubyish class, you should not use this
class as the base class, but just say C in your code.
This is almost all for the internals of Rubyish Perl.

=cut

package Rubyish::Object;
use feature qw(switch);

use UNIVERSAL::isa;
use Scalar::Util qw(refaddr);
use Rubyish::Syntax::def;
use Rubyish::Kernel;

=head1 FUNCTIONS

=head2 new()

The default constructor for all sub-classes.

=cut

sub new {
    my ($class) = @_;
    my $self = {};
    return bless $self, $class;
}

=head2 object_id(), __id__()

Returns the internal address of the object_id

=cut

def object_id {
    refaddr $self;
};

{ no strict; *__id__ = *object_id; }

# overwrite the same method in Class
def superclass {
    my $class = ref($self) || $self;
    no strict;
    return ${"${class}::ISA"}[-1];
};

# overwrite the same method in Class
def class {
    return ref($self) || "Rubyish::Class";
};

sub is_a {
    my ($self, $class) = @_;
    if (ref($self)) {
        return 1 if $self->class eq $class;
        return ref($self)->isa($class);
    }

    return $self->isa($class);
}

{ no strict; *kind_of = *is_a; }

=head2 __send__($name, @args)

Invokes method by string

    package Animal;
    use base Rubyish::Object;

    def hello {
        my ($self, $arg) = @_;
        "hello, $arg.";
    }

    1;

    my $dog = Animal->new;
    print $dog->__send__("hello", "perl"); # "hello, perl."

=cut

sub __send__ {
    my ($self, $name, @args) = @_;
    if (my $sub = $self->can($name)) {
        $sub->($self, @args);
    }
}

{
    no strict;
    *send = *__send__;
}

=head2 to_yaml()

Serialize the object to YAML.

=cut

use YAML;
sub to_yaml {
    return YAML::Dump(@_);
}

=head2 methods()

Return a list of names of instance methods.

=cut

use Class::Inspector;
def methods {
    my $methods = Class::Inspector->methods(ref($self), "public");
    Rubyish::Kernel::Array($methods);
};

=head2 inpsect()

Returns a string containing a human-readable representation of obj.

=cut

def inspect {
    scalar($self) =~ /\w+=\w+(\((.*)\))/;
    "#<" . ref($self) . ":" . $2 . ">";
};

=head2 ancestors()

All ancestors of this object.

=cut

def ancestors {
    no strict;
    Array([@{ref($self) . "::ISA"}]);
    # not completed
};

=head2 clone

Produces a shollow copy a object. New object would not have the same memory address as ordinary object.

=cut

use Clone;
*clone = *Clone::clone;
