# Becomes

A hack, in coordination with [@coreyhaines](https://github.com/coreyhaines),

and with little adult supervision, to make one Objective-C object behave like

another. Think, extending an object with a module in Ruby

```ruby

jedi = AnakinSkywalker.new

jedi.side_of_the_force #=> "Light Side"

jedi.force_choke #=> NoMethodError

jedi.extend(DarkSide)

jedi.side_of_the_force #=> "Dark Side"

jedi.force_choke #=> :metal:, you're choking!

```

Except in Objective-C it looks more like

```objective-c

id jedi = [[AnakinSkywalker alloc] init];

[jedi sideOfTheForce]; // @"Light Side"

[jedi forceChoke]; // NSInvalidArgumentException

[jedi becomes:[DarkSide class]];

[jedi sideOfTheForce]; // @"Dark Side"

[jedi forceChoke]; // :metal:, you're choking!

```
