Ruby 1.9.2-head

p require_relative('foo')

module Kernel
p method_defined?(:require_relative)
end

produces

true
false

Huh?

Hmm maybe I was not very clear in my last post ;)

require_relative is defined in Object

ruby -ve 'p method( :require_relative)'
ruby 1.9.1p378 (2010-01-10 revision 26273) [i686-linux]
#<Method: Object#require_relative>

ruby -ve 'p Object.method( :require_relative )'
ruby 1.9.1p378 (2010-01-10 revision 26273) [i686-linux]
#<Method: Class(Object)#require_relative>

However

ruby -ve 'p Object.methods.grep( /require/ )'
ruby 1.9.1p378 (2010-01-10 revision 26273) [i686-linux]
[]
^^^^ ????

Maybe a tiny bug here?

Cheers
R.

No bug (in Ruby). The method is private.

$ ruby -ve 'p Object.private_instance_methods.select{|m| m.to_s =~ /
require/ }'
ruby 1.9.1p378 (2010-01-10 revision 26273) [i386-darwin9.8.0]
[:require_relative, :require]

Damn it! I can't tell you how many time I've been bitten by that.
There REALLY needs to be a convenient way to check ALL methods,
public, private and protected.

Of course I've said this the last time this came up too, but you know,
who cares. Array#repeated_permutation is much more important.
