Attempts to activate the current {#possibility} (given that it hasn’t already been activated) @return [void]
Creates an object which represents the remote XML-RPC server at the given uri
. The URI
should have a host, port, path, user and password. Example: user:password@host:port/path
Raises an ArgumentError
if the uri
is invalid, or if the protocol isn’t http or https.
If a proxy
is given it should be in the form of “host:port”.
The optional timeout
defaults to 30 seconds.
Receives a Hash
and calls XMLRPC::Client.new
with the corresponding values.
The hash
parameter has following case-insensitive keys:
host
path
port
proxy_host
proxy_port
user
password
use_ssl
timeout
This method is a shortcut for converting a single row (Array) into a CSV
String.
The options
parameter can be anything CSV::new()
understands. This method understands an additional :encoding
parameter to set the base Encoding
for the output. This method will try to guess your Encoding
from the first non-nil
field in row
, if possible, but you may need to use this parameter as a backup plan.
The :row_sep
option
defaults to $INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR
($/
) when calling this method.
Returns true if the date is Wednesday.
Returns true
if time represents Wednesday.
t = Time.local(1993, 2, 24) #=> 1993-02-24 00:00:00 -0600 p t.wednesday? #=> true
returns array of WIN32OLE_PARAM
object corresponding with method parameters.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook') method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs') p method.params # => [Filename, FileFormat, Password, WriteResPassword, ReadOnlyRecommended, CreateBackup, AccessMode, ConflictResolution, AddToMru, TextCodepage, TextVisualLayout]
This method wraps a String you provide, or an empty default String, in a CSV
object which is passed to the provided block. You can use the block to append CSV
rows to the String and when the block exits, the final String will be returned.
Note that a passed String is modified by this method. Call dup() before passing if you need a new String.
The options
parameter can be anything CSV::new()
understands. This method understands an additional :encoding
parameter when not passed a String to set the base Encoding
for the output. CSV
needs this hint if you plan to output non-ASCII compatible data.
Add separator in summary.
Add separator in summary.
Returns the parameter information of this proc.
prc = lambda{|x, y=42, *other|} prc.parameters #=> [[:req, :x], [:opt, :y], [:rest, :other]]
Returns the parameter information of this method.
Returns the parameter information of this method.
Generate a JSON
document from the Ruby data structure obj and return it. state is * a JSON::State object,
or a Hash
like object (responding to to_hash),
an object convertible into a hash by a to_h method,
that is used as or to configure a State object.
It defaults to a state object, that creates the shortest possible JSON
text in one line, checks for circular data structures and doesn’t allow NaN
, Infinity
, and -Infinity.
A state hash can have the following keys:
indent: a string used to indent levels (default: ”),
space: a string that is put after, a : or , delimiter (default: ”),
space_before: a string that is put before a : pair delimiter (default: ”),
object_nl: a string that is put at the end of a JSON
object (default: ”),
array_nl: a string that is put at the end of a JSON
array (default: ”),
allow_nan: true if NaN
, Infinity
, and -Infinity should be generated, otherwise an exception is thrown if these values are encountered. This options defaults to false.
max_nesting: The maximum depth of nesting allowed in the data structures from which JSON
is to be generated. Disable depth checking with :max_nesting => false, it defaults to 100.
See also the fast_generate
for the fastest creation method with the least amount of sanity checks, and the pretty_generate
method for some defaults for pretty output.
Changes the parameters of the deflate stream to allow changes between different types of data that require different types of compression. Any unprocessed data is flushed before changing the params.
