Understanding method_added for class methods

Question

I would like to do some magic in the moment instance and class methods are added to some class. Therefore I tried the following:

module Magic
  def self.incl         


        

Answer 1

you are looking for singleton_method_added:

module Magic
  def self.included(base)
    base.extend ClassMethods
  end  
  module ClassMethods
    def method_added(name)
      puts "instance method '#{name}' added"
    end  

    def singleton_method_added(name)
      puts "class method '#{name}' added"
    end
  end  
end

class Foo
  include Magic

  def bla  
  end

  def blubb
  end

  def self.foobar
  end
end

Output:

instance method 'bla' added
instance method 'blubb' added
class method 'foobar' added

Enjoy!
