hi friends ;  
i have recenlty started Ruby;

I have a java source code and it has two interface ;

which are  
+widget ,+observer  
anologuetimer and digital timer implements both interface

i also have generator class  
secondgenerator and minutegenerator are derived from that class

how could you design this structure in Ruby ?

observer{abstract class} ----------------------Generator   
\<\>—second generator  
\<\>---- minutegenerator

widget  
\<\>----ana;loguetimer  
\<\>----digitaltimer

============================================  
The way this program operates is thus. Generators are objects that  
generate messages. These messages are then broadcast out into the world.  
For example, the SecondGenerator will send out a message every second  
while the MinuteGenerator will send out one every minute

thanks in advance guys
