Normalizes a request path. Raises an exception if the path cannot be normalized.
Escapes path str
Attempts to activate the current {#possibility} @return [void]
@return [Boolean] whether the current spec is satisfied as a new possibility.

exception if the number of bytes will be more than limit

Topologically sorts the given vertices. @param [Enumerable<Vertex>] vertices the vertices to be sorted, which must
all belong to the same graph.
@return [Array<Vertex>] The sorted vertices.
Returns the value of the given instance variable, or nil if the instance variable is not set. The @
part of the variable name should be included for regular instance variables. Throws a NameError
exception if the supplied symbol is not valid as an instance variable name. String arguments are converted to symbols.
class Fred def initialize(p1, p2) @a, @b = p1, p2 end end fred = Fred.new('cat', 99) fred.instance_variable_get(:@a) #=> "cat" fred.instance_variable_get("@b") #=> 99
Sets the instance variable named by symbol to the given object, thereby frustrating the efforts of the class’s author to attempt to provide proper encapsulation. The variable does not have to exist prior to this call. If the instance variable name is passed as a string, that string is converted to a symbol.
class Fred def initialize(p1, p2) @a, @b = p1, p2 end end fred = Fred.new('cat', 99) fred.instance_variable_set(:@a, 'dog') #=> "dog" fred.instance_variable_set(:@c, 'cat') #=> "cat" fred.inspect #=> "#<Fred:0x401b3da8 @a=\"dog\", @b=99, @c=\"cat\">"
Returns true
if the given instance variable is defined in obj. String arguments are converted to symbols.
class Fred def initialize(p1, p2) @a, @b = p1, p2 end end fred = Fred.new('cat', 99) fred.instance_variable_defined?(:@a) #=> true fred.instance_variable_defined?("@b") #=> true fred.instance_variable_defined?("@c") #=> false
Removes the named instance variable from obj, returning that variable’s value.
class Dummy attr_reader :var def initialize @var = 99 end def remove remove_instance_variable(:@var) end end d = Dummy.new d.var #=> 99 d.remove #=> 99 d.var #=> nil
Defines a singleton method in the receiver. The method parameter can be a Proc
, a Method
or an UnboundMethod
object. If a block is specified, it is used as the method body.
class A class << self def class_name to_s end end end A.define_singleton_method(:who_am_i) do "I am: #{class_name}" end A.who_am_i # ==> "I am: A" guy = "Bob" guy.define_singleton_method(:hello) { "#{self}: Hello there!" } guy.hello #=> "Bob: Hello there!"
DO NOT USE THIS DIRECTLY.
Hook method to return whether the obj can respond to id method or not.
When the method name parameter is given as a string, the string is converted to a symbol.
See respond_to?
, and the example of BasicObject
.
Trap attempts to add methods to Numeric
objects. Always raises a TypeError
.
Numerics should be values; singleton_methods should not be added to them.
Same as Enumerator#with_index(0)
, i.e. there is no starting offset.
If no block is given, a new Enumerator
is returned that includes the index.
Iterates the given block for each element with an arbitrary object, obj
, and returns obj
If no block is given, returns a new Enumerator
.
to_three = Enumerator.new do |y| 3.times do |x| y << x end end to_three_with_string = to_three.with_object("foo") to_three_with_string.each do |x,string| puts "#{string}: #{x}" end # => foo:0 # => foo:1 # => foo:2
Removes the definition of the sym, returning that constant’s value.
class Dummy @@var = 99 puts @@var remove_class_variable(:@@var) p(defined? @@var) end
produces:
99 nil
Returns the value of the given class variable (or throws a NameError
exception). The @@
part of the variable name should be included for regular class variables. String arguments are converted to symbols.
class Fred @@foo = 99 end Fred.class_variable_get(:@@foo) #=> 99
