RFC6068, The mailto URL scheme
Creates XML-RPC call/response documents
This class is important to handle XMLRPC dateTime.iso8601 values, correctly, because normal UNIX-dates, ie: Date, only handle dates from year 1970 on, and ruby’s native Time class handles dates without the time component.
XMLRPC::DateTime is able to store a XMLRPC dateTime.iso8601 value correctly.
Marshalling of XMLRPC::Create#methodCall and XMLRPC::Create#methodResponse
Raised when a mathematical function is evaluated outside of its domain of definition.
For example, since cos returns values in the range -1..1, its inverse function acos is only defined on that interval:
Math.acos(42)
produces:
Math::DomainError: Numerical argument is out of domain - "acos"
Process::Status encapsulates the information on the status of a running or terminated system process. The built-in variable $? is either nil or a Process::Status object.
fork { exit 99 } #=> 26557 Process.wait #=> 26557 $?.class #=> Process::Status $?.to_i #=> 25344 $? >> 8 #=> 99 $?.stopped? #=> false $?.exited? #=> true $?.exitstatus #=> 99
Posix systems record information on processes using a 16-bit integer. The lower bits record the process status (stopped, exited, signaled) and the upper bits possibly contain additional information (for example the program’s return code in the case of exited processes). Pre Ruby 1.8, these bits were exposed directly to the Ruby program. Ruby now encapsulates these in a Process::Status object. To maximize compatibility, however, these objects retain a bit-oriented interface. In the descriptions that follow, when we talk about the integer value of stat, we’re referring to this 16 bit value.
This module contains configuration information about the SSL extension, for example if socket support is enabled, or the host name TLS extension is enabled. Constants in this module will always be defined, but contain ‘true` or `false` values depending on the configuration of your OpenSSL installation.
Atom is an XML-based document format that is used to describe ‘feeds’ of related information. A typical use is in a news feed where the information is periodically updated and which users can subscribe to. The Atom format is described in tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287
The Atom module provides support in reading and creating feeds.
See the RSS module for examples consuming and creating feeds.
Provides a set of builders for various RSS objects

Mixin methods for install and update options for Gem::Commands
This module is used to manager HTTP status codes.
See www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html for more information.
This module enables a user-class to be marshalled by XML-RPC for Ruby into a Hash, with one additional key/value pair _class___ => ClassName
Defines ParserWriterChooseMixin, which makes it possible to choose a different XMLWriter and/or XMLParser then the default one.
The Mixin is used in client.rb (class XMLRPC::Client) and server.rb (class XMLRPC::BasicServer)
Implementation of an X.509 certificate as specified in RFC 5280. Provides access to a certificate’s attributes and allows certificates to be read from a string, but also supports the creation of new certificates from scratch.
Certificate is capable of handling DER-encoded certificates and certificates encoded in OpenSSL’s PEM format.
raw = File.read "cert.cer" # DER- or PEM-encoded certificate = OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new raw
A certificate may be encoded in DER format
cert = ... File.open("cert.cer", "wb") { |f| f.print cert.to_der }
or in PEM format
cert = ... File.open("cert.pem", "wb") { |f| f.print cert.to_pem }
X.509 certificates are associated with a private/public key pair, typically a RSA, DSA or ECC key (see also OpenSSL::PKey::RSA, OpenSSL::PKey::DSA and OpenSSL::PKey::EC), the public key itself is stored within the certificate and can be accessed in form of an OpenSSL::PKey. Certificates are typically used to be able to associate some form of identity with a key pair, for example web servers serving pages over HTTPs use certificates to authenticate themselves to the user.
The public key infrastructure (PKI) model relies on trusted certificate authorities (“root CAs”) that issue these certificates, so that end users need to base their trust just on a selected few authorities that themselves again vouch for subordinate CAs issuing their certificates to end users.
The OpenSSL::X509 module provides the tools to set up an independent PKI, similar to scenarios where the ‘openssl’ command line tool is used for issuing certificates in a private PKI.
First, we need to create a “self-signed” root certificate. To do so, we need to generate a key first. Please note that the choice of “1” as a serial number is considered a security flaw for real certificates. Secure choices are integers in the two-digit byte range and ideally not sequential but secure random numbers, steps omitted here to keep the example concise.
root_key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new 2048 # the CA's public/private key root_ca = OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new root_ca.version = 2 # cf. RFC 5280 - to make it a "v3" certificate root_ca.serial = 1 root_ca.subject = OpenSSL::X509::Name.parse "/DC=org/DC=ruby-lang/CN=Ruby CA" root_ca.issuer = root_ca.subject # root CA's are "self-signed" root_ca.public_key = root_key.public_key root_ca.not_before = Time.now root_ca.not_after = root_ca.not_before + 2 * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 # 2 years validity ef = OpenSSL::X509::ExtensionFactory.new ef.subject_certificate = root_ca ef.issuer_certificate = root_ca root_ca.add_extension(ef.create_extension("basicConstraints","CA:TRUE",true)) root_ca.add_extension(ef.create_extension("keyUsage","keyCertSign, cRLSign", true)) root_ca.add_extension(ef.create_extension("subjectKeyIdentifier","hash",false)) root_ca.add_extension(ef.create_extension("authorityKeyIdentifier","keyid:always",false)) root_ca.sign(root_key, OpenSSL::Digest::SHA256.new)
The next step is to create the end-entity certificate using the root CA certificate.
key = OpenSSL::PKey::RSA.new 2048 cert = OpenSSL::X509::Certificate.new cert.version = 2 cert.serial = 2 cert.subject = OpenSSL::X509::Name.parse "/DC=org/DC=ruby-lang/CN=Ruby certificate" cert.issuer = root_ca.subject # root CA is the issuer cert.public_key = key.public_key cert.not_before = Time.now cert.not_after = cert.not_before + 1 * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 # 1 years validity ef = OpenSSL::X509::ExtensionFactory.new ef.subject_certificate = cert ef.issuer_certificate = root_ca cert.add_extension(ef.create_extension("keyUsage","digitalSignature", true)) cert.add_extension(ef.create_extension("subjectKeyIdentifier","hash",false)) cert.sign(root_key, OpenSSL::Digest::SHA256.new)
The top-level class representing any ASN.1 object. When parsed by ASN1.decode, tagged values are always represented by an instance of ASN1Data.
ASN1Data for parsing tagged values When encoding an ASN.1 type it is inherently clear what original type (e.g. INTEGER, OCTET STRING etc.) this value has, regardless of its tagging. But opposed to the time an ASN.1 type is to be encoded, when parsing them it is not possible to deduce the “real type” of tagged values. This is why tagged values are generally parsed into ASN1Data instances, but with a different outcome for implicit and explicit tagging.
An implicitly 1-tagged INTEGER value will be parsed as an ASN1Data with
tag equal to 1
tag_class equal to :CONTEXT_SPECIFIC
value equal to a String that carries the raw encoding of the INTEGER.
This implies that a subsequent decoding step is required to completely decode implicitly tagged values.
An explicitly 1-tagged INTEGER value will be parsed as an ASN1Data with
tag equal to 1
tag_class equal to :CONTEXT_SPECIFIC
value equal to an Array with one single element, an instance of OpenSSL::ASN1::Integer, i.e. the inner element is the non-tagged primitive value, and the tagging is represented in the outer ASN1Data

An OpenSSL::OCSP::CertificateId identifies a certificate to the CA so that a status check can be performed.
