differences between Module and Class ?

ruby-core #1378
I would like to know all the differences between Module and Class, except the ones that occur only in hidden parts of the Ruby interpreter. I mean everything that is exposed to application programming, including what is exposed to programming extensions and embedding the ruby interpreter in other applications. An example of excluded details would be the hidden proxy classes that handle the use of #include. Up to now I have found six differences : 1. Class inherits from Module (and obviously not the other way around). 2. Module#include(x) works where x is a Module, _except_ where x is a Class. 3. class A<x works where x is a Class, not when x is Module. 4. Class#new exists. Module#new doesn't exist. instantiating an Object is the responsibility of Class#new and Class#allocate, which may decide to make an Object have a T_DATA cell type (or other) instead of the ordinary T_OBJECT cell type. This does not involve any non-Class Module, which can only participate in the #initialize phase. 5. a Class always has Object in its ancestor list, while a non-Class Module never has. 6. if Class===B and Class===A and B<A, then also (class<<B;self;end)<(class<<A;self;end). This does not occur if A is a non-Class Module, nor in any other case. So, is there anything I may be missing ? (note: every Class is a Module, because Class<Module, which is why I talk about "non-Class Modules") ________________________________________________________________ Mathieu Bouchard http://artengine.ca/matju
