extlib_inheritable_reader(*ivars, &block) public

Defines class-level inheritable attribute reader. Attributes are available to subclasses, each subclass has a copy of parent’s attribute.

@param *syms Array of attributes to define inheritable reader for. @return <Array[#to_s]> Array of attributes converted into inheritable_readers.

@api public

@todo Do we want to block instance_reader via :instance_reader => false @todo It would be preferable that we do something with a Hash passed in

(error out or do the same as other methods above) instead of silently
moving on). In particular, this makes the return value of this function
less useful.
