Class: ActsAsFerret::BlankSlate

BlankSlate provides an abstract base class with no predefined methods (except for __send__ and __id__). BlankSlate is useful as a base class when writing classes that depend upon method_missing (e.g. dynamic proxies).

33:           if instance_methods.include?(name.to_s) and name !~ /^(__|instance_eval|methods)/
34:             @hidden_methods ||= {}
35:             @hidden_methods[name.to_sym] = instance_method(name)
36:             undef_method name
37:           end
38:         end

reveal(name)

Redefine a previously hidden method so that it may be called on a blank slate object.

no-op here since we don‘t hide the methods we reveal where this is used in this implementation
