Converts time to UTC (GMT), modifying the receiver.
t = Time.now #=> 2007-11-19 08:18:31 -0600 t.gmt? #=> false t.gmtime #=> 2007-11-19 14:18:31 UTC t.gmt? #=> true t = Time.now #=> 2007-11-19 08:18:51 -0600 t.utc? #=> false t.utc #=> 2007-11-19 14:18:51 UTC t.utc? #=> true
Returns a new Time object representing time in UTC.
t = Time.local(2000,1,1,20,15,1) #=> 2000-01-01 20:15:01 -0600 t.gmt? #=> false y = t.getgm #=> 2000-01-02 02:15:01 UTC y.gmt? #=> true t == y #=> true
Returns true if time represents a time in UTC (GMT).
t = Time.now #=> 2007-11-19 08:15:23 -0600 t.utc? #=> false t = Time.gm(2000,"jan",1,20,15,1) #=> 2000-01-01 20:15:01 UTC t.utc? #=> true t = Time.now #=> 2007-11-19 08:16:03 -0600 t.gmt? #=> false t = Time.gm(2000,1,1,20,15,1) #=> 2000-01-01 20:15:01 UTC t.gmt? #=> true
Returns true if time represents Saturday.
t = Time.local(2006, 6, 10) #=> 2006-06-10 00:00:00 -0500 t.saturday? #=> true
Calls the block once for each [key, value] pair in the database. Returns self.
Updates the database with multiple values from the specified object. Takes any object which implements the each_pair method, including Hash and DBM objects.
Yields the value of each struct member in order. If no block is given an enumerator is returned.
Customer = Struct.new(:name, :address, :zip) joe = Customer.new("Joe Smith", "123 Maple, Anytown NC", 12345) joe.each {|x| puts(x) }
Produces:
Joe Smith 123 Maple, Anytown NC 12345
Returns pathname configuration variable using fpathconf().
name should be a constant under Etc which begins with PC_.
The return value is an integer or nil. nil means indefinite limit. (fpathconf() returns -1 but errno is not set.)
require 'etc' IO.pipe {|r, w| p w.pathconf(Etc::PC_PIPE_BUF) #=> 4096 }
Enables/disables echo back. On some platforms, all combinations of this flags and raw/cooked mode may not be valid.
You must require ‘io/console’ to use this method.
Yields self with disabling echo back.
STDIN.noecho(&:gets)
will read and return a line without echo back.
You must require ‘io/console’ to use this method.
Returns status information for ios as an object of type File::Stat.
f = File.new("testfile") s = f.stat "%o" % s.mode #=> "100644" s.blksize #=> 4096 s.atime #=> Wed Apr 09 08:53:54 CDT 2003
Executes the block for every line in the named I/O port, where lines are separated by sep.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
IO.foreach("testfile") {|x| print "GOT ", x }
produces:
GOT This is line one GOT This is line two GOT This is line three GOT And so on...
If the last argument is a hash, it’s the keyword argument to open. See IO.read for detail.
If obj is Numeric, write the character whose code is the least-significant byte of obj, otherwise write the first byte of the string representation of obj to ios. Note: This method is not safe for use with multi-byte characters as it will truncate them.
$stdout.putc "A" $stdout.putc 65
produces:
AA
Executes the block for every line in ios, where lines are separated by sep. ios must be opened for reading or an IOError will be raised.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
f = File.new("testfile") f.each {|line| puts "#{f.lineno}: #{line}" }
produces:
1: This is line one 2: This is line two 3: This is line three 4: And so on...
This is a deprecated alias for each_char.
Immediately writes all buffered data in ios to disk.
If the underlying operating system does not support fdatasync(2), IO#fsync is called instead (which might raise a NotImplementedError).
Reads a one-character string from ios. Returns nil if called at end of file.
f = File.new("testfile") f.getc #=> "h" f.getc #=> "e"
Reads a one-character string from ios. Raises an EOFError on end of file.
f = File.new("testfile") f.readchar #=> "h" f.readchar #=> "e"
Pushes back one character (passed as a parameter) onto ios, such that a subsequent buffered character read will return it. Only one character may be pushed back before a subsequent read operation (that is, you will be able to read only the last of several characters that have been pushed back). Has no effect with unbuffered reads (such as IO#sysread).
f = File.new("testfile") #=> #<File:testfile> c = f.getc #=> "8" f.ungetc(c) #=> nil f.getc #=> "8"
Returns true if ios is associated with a terminal device (tty), false otherwise.
File.new("testfile").isatty #=> false File.new("/dev/tty").isatty #=> true
Puts ios into binary mode. Once a stream is in binary mode, it cannot be reset to nonbinary mode.
newline conversion disabled
encoding conversion disabled
content is treated as ASCII-8BIT
Returns true if ios is binmode.
Executes block for each key in the database, passing the key and the corresponding value as a parameter.
Adds the key-value pairs of other to gdbm, overwriting entries with duplicate keys with those from other. other must have an each_pair method.
