To start with the last point: the setter methods are engineered to
look like and behave like assignments. So when you do this:
obj.x = y
it always returns y. It's emulating assignment semantics:
x = y # always returns y
So using 'return' with an argument in those methods doesn't work.
As for your main question: I'm not sure whether this does exactly what
you want (though I've got some tests that suggest perhaps it does),
but here's a version that might at least give you some ideas:
require 'time'
class Thing
attr_reader :created_at
def created_at=(new_time)
if new_time == new_time.to_s
now = Time.now
str = "#{new_time} #{now.strftime('%H:%M:%S')}"
@created_at = Time.parse(str)
else
@created_at = new_time
end
end
end
The idea, as you can see, is to piece together a string that contains
the year, month, and day from the string that was passed in, plus the
hour, minute, and second from Time.now. I think it does what you want
with correct input, though some further checking for correctness might
be in order.
