Singleton
Defined in:
lib/rubypython/wrapper_extensions.rb

Overview

A singleton object providing access to the python __main__ and __builtin__ modules. This can be conveniently accessed through the already instaniated PyMain constant. The __main__ namespace is searched beofre the __builtin__ namespace. As such, naming clashes will be resolved in that order.

Block Syntax

The PyMainClass object provides somewhat experimental block support. A block may be passed to a method call and the object returned by the function call will be passed as an argument to the block.
