Returns the status of the global “abort on exception” condition.

The default is false.

When set to true, if any thread is aborted by an exception, the raised exception will be re-raised in the main thread.

Can also be specified by the global $DEBUG flag or command line option -d.

See also ::abort_on_exception=.

There is also an instance level method to set this for a specific thread, see abort_on_exception.

When set to true, if any thread is aborted by an exception, the raised exception will be re-raised in the main thread. Returns the new state.

Thread.abort_on_exception = true
t1 = Thread.new do
  puts  "In new thread"
  raise "Exception from thread"
end
sleep(1)
puts "not reached"

This will produce:

In new thread
prog.rb:4: Exception from thread (RuntimeError)
 from prog.rb:2:in `initialize'
 from prog.rb:2:in `new'
 from prog.rb:2

See also ::abort_on_exception.

There is also an instance level method to set this for a specific thread, see abort_on_exception=.

Returns the status of the thread-local “abort on exception” condition for this thr.

The default is false.

See also abort_on_exception=.

There is also a class level method to set this for all threads, see ::abort_on_exception.

When set to true, if this thr is aborted by an exception, the raised exception will be re-raised in the main thread.

See also abort_on_exception.

There is also a class level method to set this for all threads, see ::abort_on_exception=.

Specifies a character to be appended on completion. Nothing will be appended if an empty string (“”) or nil is specified.

For example:

require "readline"

Readline.readline("> ", true)
Readline.completion_append_character = " "

Result:

>
Input "/var/li".

> /var/li
Press TAB key.

> /var/lib
Completes "b" and appends " ". So, you can continuously input "/usr".

> /var/lib /usr

NOTE: Only one character can be specified. When “string” is specified, sets only “s” that is the first.

require "readline"

Readline.completion_append_character = "string"
p Readline.completion_append_character # => "s"

Raises NotImplementedError if the using readline library does not support.

Returns a string containing a character to be appended on completion. The default is a space (“ ”).

Raises NotImplementedError if the using readline library does not support.

When invoked with a block, yield all repeated permutations of length n of the elements of the array, then return the array itself.

The implementation makes no guarantees about the order in which the repeated permutations are yielded.

If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned instead.

Examples:

a = [1, 2]
a.repeated_permutation(1).to_a  #=> [[1], [2]]
a.repeated_permutation(2).to_a  #=> [[1,1],[1,2],[2,1],[2,2]]
a.repeated_permutation(3).to_a  #=> [[1,1,1],[1,1,2],[1,2,1],[1,2,2],
                                #    [2,1,1],[2,1,2],[2,2,1],[2,2,2]]
a.repeated_permutation(0).to_a  #=> [[]] # one permutation of length 0

Returns the fractional part of the second.

DateTime.new(2001,2,3,4,5,6.5).sec_fraction       #=> (1/2)

This method is defined for backward compatibility.

Returns major version.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Word 10.0 Object Library', 'Documents')
puts tobj.major_version # => 8

Returns minor version.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Word 10.0 Object Library', 'Documents')
puts tobj.minor_version # => 2

Returns the type library major version.

tlib = WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library')
puts tlib.major_version # -> 1

Returns the type library minor version.

tlib = WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library')
puts tlib.minor_version # -> 3

Return the accept character set for all new CGI instances.

Set the accept character set for all new CGI instances.

This method is a shortcut for converting a single line of a CSV String into an Array. Note that if line contains multiple rows, anything beyond the first row is ignored.

The options parameter can be anything CSV::new() understands.

Stores the indicated separators for later use.

If auto-discovery was requested for @row_sep, this method will read ahead in the @io and try to find one. ARGF, STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR and any stream open for output only with a default @row_sep of $INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR ($/).

This method also establishes the quoting rules used for CSV output.

Loads any converters requested during construction.

If field_name is set :converters (the default) field converters are set. When field_name is :header_converters header converters are added instead.

The :unconverted_fields option is also activated for :converters calls, if requested.
