Checks for a method provided by this the delegate object by forwarding the call through _getobj_.
The block passed to this method will be called just before running the RDoc generator. It is allowed to modify RDoc::Task attributes inside the block.
Convenience method for Shell::CommandProcessor.install_system_commands. Defines instance methods representing all the executable files found in Shell.default_system_path, with the given prefix prepended to their names.
Shell.install_system_commands Shell.new.sys_echo("hello") # => hello
Returns the status of the global “report on exception” condition.
The default is false.
When set to true, all threads will report the exception if an exception is raised in any thread.
See also ::report_on_exception=.
There is also an instance level method to set this for a specific thread, see report_on_exception.
When set to true, all threads will report the exception if an exception is raised. Returns the new state.
Thread.report_on_exception = true t1 = Thread.new do puts "In new thread" raise "Exception from thread" end sleep(1) puts "In the main thread"
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 In the main thread
See also ::report_on_exception.
There is also an instance level method to set this for a specific thread, see report_on_exception=.
Returns the status of the thread-local “report on exception” condition for this thr.
The default is false.
See also report_on_exception=.
There is also a class level method to set this for all threads, see ::report_on_exception.
When set to true, all threads (including the main program) will report the exception if an exception is raised in this thr.
See also report_on_exception.
There is also a class level method to set this for all threads, see ::report_on_exception=.
Returns the last win32 Error of the current executing Thread or nil if none
Sets the last win32 Error of the current executing Thread to error
This method removes a file system entry path. path shall be a regular file, a directory, or something. If path is a directory, remove it recursively. This method is required to avoid TOCTTOU (time-of-check-to-time-of-use) local security vulnerability of rm_r. rm_r causes security hole when:
Parent directory is world writable (including /tmp).
Removing directory tree includes world writable directory.
The system has symbolic link.
To avoid this security hole, this method applies special preprocess. If path is a directory, this method chown(2) and chmod(2) all removing directories. This requires the current process is the owner of the removing whole directory tree, or is the super user (root).
WARNING: You must ensure that ALL parent directories cannot be moved by other untrusted users. For example, parent directories should not be owned by untrusted users, and should not be world writable except when the sticky bit set.
WARNING: Only the owner of the removing directory tree, or Unix super user (root) should invoke this method. Otherwise this method does not work.
For details of this security vulnerability, see Perl’s case:
For fileutils.rb, this vulnerability is reported in [ruby-dev:26100].

Shortcut for defining multiple delegator methods, but with no provision for using a different name. The following two code samples have the same effect:
def_delegators :@records, :size, :<<, :map def_delegator :@records, :size def_delegator :@records, :<< def_delegator :@records, :map
Defines a method method which delegates to accessor (i.e. it calls the method of the same name in accessor). If new_name is provided, it is used as the name for the delegate method.
Returns the latest release-version specification for the gem name.
Returns the version of the latest release-version of gem name
Register a Gem::Specification for default gem.
Two formats for the specification are supported:
MRI 2.0 style, where spec.files contains unprefixed require names. The spec’s filenames will be registered as-is.
New style, where spec.files contains files prefixed with paths from spec.require_paths. The prefixes are stripped before registering the spec’s filenames. Unprefixed files are omitted.
Is this tar entry a directory?
ptr.to_str => string ptr.to_str(len) => string
Returns the pointer contents as a string.
When called with no arguments, this method will return the contents with the length of this pointer’s size.
When called with len, a string of len bytes will be returned.

Performs a Miller-Rabin primality test. This is same as prime? except this first attempts trial divisions with some small primes.
