Converts pattern to a Regexp (if it isn’t already one), then returns a true or false indicates whether the regexp is matched str or not without updating $~ and other related variables. If the second parameter is present, it specifies the position in the string to begin the search.
"Ruby".match?(/R.../) #=> true "Ruby".match?(/R.../, 1) #=> false "Ruby".match?(/P.../) #=> false $& #=> nil
Returns a true or false indicates whether the regexp is matched or not without updating $~ and other related variables. If the second parameter is present, it specifies the position in the string to begin the search.
/R.../.match?("Ruby") #=> true /R.../.match?("Ruby", 1) #=> false /P.../.match?("Ruby") #=> false $& #=> nil
Returns sym.to_s.match?.
Tests whether the given pattern is matched from the current scan pointer. Returns the length of the match, or nil. The scan pointer is not advanced.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') p s.match?(/\w+/) # -> 4 p s.match?(/\w+/) # -> 4 p s.match?(/\s+/) # -> nil
Returns true iff the last match was successful.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.match?(/\w+/) # => 4 s.matched? # => true s.match?(/\d+/) # => nil s.matched? # => false
Returns the last matched string.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.match?(/\w+/) # -> 4 s.matched # -> "test"
Returns the size of the most recent match (see matched), or nil if there was no recent match.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.check /\w+/ # -> "test" s.matched_size # -> 4 s.check /\d+/ # -> nil s.matched_size # -> nil
Evaluates whether the given string matches an entity definition, returning true if so, and false otherwise.
Does this dependency match the specification described by name and version or match spec?
NOTE: Unlike matches_spec? this method does not return true when the version is a prerelease version unless this is a prerelease dependency.
Does this dependency match spec?
NOTE: This is not a convenience method. Unlike match? this method returns true when spec is a prerelease version even if this dependency is not a prerelease dependency.
