Results for: "pstore"

Returns the result of converting the serialized data in source into a Ruby object (possibly with associated subordinate objects). source may be either an instance of IO or an object that responds to to_str. If proc is specified, each object will be passed to the proc, as the object is being deserialized.

Never pass untrusted data (including user supplied input) to this method. Please see the overview for further details.

Stores the specified string value in the database, indexed via the string key provided.

Associates the value value with the specified key.

Stores a new value in the database with the given key as an index.

If the key already exists, this will update the value associated with the key.

Returns the given value.

Element Assignment

Associates the value given by value with the key given by key.

h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 }
h["a"] = 9
h["c"] = 4
h   #=> {"a"=>9, "b"=>200, "c"=>4}
h.store("d", 42) #=> 42
h   #=> {"a"=>9, "b"=>200, "c"=>4, "d"=>42}

key should not have its value changed while it is in use as a key (an unfrozen String passed as a key will be duplicated and frozen).

a = "a"
b = "b".freeze
h = { a => 100, b => 200 }
h.key(100).equal? a #=> false
h.key(200).equal? b #=> true

Sets the environment variable name to value. If the value given is nil the environment variable is deleted. name must be a string.

Returns true if the named file is a directory, or a symlink that points at a directory, and false otherwise.

file_name can be an IO object.

File.directory?(".")

Returns a list of modules included/prepended in mod (including mod itself).

module Mod
  include Math
  include Comparable
  prepend Enumerable
end

Mod.ancestors        #=> [Enumerable, Mod, Comparable, Math]
Math.ancestors       #=> [Math]
Enumerable.ancestors #=> [Enumerable]

See FileTest.directory?.

Returns true if the named file is a directory, or a symlink that points at a directory, and false otherwise.

file_name can be an IO object.
