Question

I have a reference to the Class object of a given class. I need to find out the file path of the class. The class inherits from ActiveRecord if that is any help.

Any easy way of doing this?

Thanks.

Use source_location on its methods:

YourClass.instance_methods(false).map { |m| 
  YourClass.instance_method(m).source_location.first
}.uniq

You might get more than one location, as methods might be defined in different places.
