This is a bit of an odd request, but does anyone know how i would find
what file Ruby is using to define an object in? For instance if i had
a few libraries in my include path and they defined the (ever useful)
classes Foo, Bar, and Baz is there anyway to find out from within ruby
that Foo is defined in the file /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/
foo-1.0.0/lib/foo.rb or wherever?
The best i could come up with would be a rather brute force approach
to searching through the files found in $: and this just seems
horribly slow and prone to explosions. Just wondering if someone out
there who has a better understanding of Ruby's underbelly might have a
better idea.
