Returns the directories in the current shell’s PATH environment variable as an array of directory names. This sets the system_path
for all instances of Shell
.
Example: If in your current shell, you did:
$ echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin
Running this method in the above shell would then return:
["/usr/bin", "/bin", "/usr/local/bin"]
Sets the system_path
that new instances of Shell
should have as their initial system_path.
path
should be an array of directory name strings.
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
Starts tracing object allocations from the ObjectSpace
extension module.
For example:
require 'objspace' class C include ObjectSpace def foo trace_object_allocations do obj = Object.new p "#{allocation_sourcefile(obj)}:#{allocation_sourceline(obj)}" end end end C.new.foo #=> "objtrace.rb:8"
This example has included the ObjectSpace
module to make it easier to read, but you can also use the ::trace_object_allocations
notation (recommended).
Note that this feature introduces a huge performance decrease and huge memory consumption.
Returns the method identifier for the given object
.
class A include ObjectSpace def foo trace_object_allocations do obj = Object.new p "#{allocation_class_path(obj)}##{allocation_method_id(obj)}" end end end A.new.foo #=> "Class#new"
See ::trace_object_allocations
for more information and examples.
Calls CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON). Starts tracking memory allocations. See also OpenSSL.print_mem_leaks
.
This is available only when built with a capable OpenSSL
and –enable-debug configure option.
Returns information about the most recent garbage collection.
Returns the size of memory allocated by malloc().
Only available if ruby was built with CALC_EXACT_MALLOC_SIZE
.
Set
the default id conversion object.
This is expected to be an instance such as DRb::DRbIdConv
that responds to to_id
and to_obj
that can convert objects to and from DRb
references.
See DRbServer#default_id_conv.

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 a list of paths matching glob
from the latest gems that can be used by a gem to pick up features from other gems. For example:
Gem.find_latest_files('rdoc/discover').each do |path| load path end
if check_load_path
is true (the default), then find_latest_files
also searches $LOAD_PATH for files as well as gems.
Unlike find_files
, find_latest_files
will return only files from the latest version of a gem.
The file name and line number of the caller of the caller of this method.
Returns the latest release-version specification for the gem name
.
