IPSocket#peeraddr

Returns the remote address as an array which contains address_family, port, hostname and numeric_address. It is defined for connection oriented socket such as TCPSocket.

If reverse_lookup is true or :hostname, hostname is obtained from numeric_address using reverse lookup. Or if it is false, or :numeric, hostname is same as numeric_address. Or if it is nil or omitted, obeys to ipsocket.do_not_reverse_lookup. See Socket.getaddrinfo also.

TCPSocket.open("www.ruby-lang.org", 80) {|sock|
  p sock.peeraddr #=> ["AF_INET", 80, "carbon.ruby-lang.org", "221.186.184.68"]
  p sock.peeraddr(true)  #=> ["AF_INET", 80, "carbon.ruby-lang.org", "221.186.184.68"]
  p sock.peeraddr(false) #=> ["AF_INET", 80, "221.186.184.68", "221.186.184.68"]
  p sock.peeraddr(:hostname) #=> ["AF_INET", 80, "carbon.ruby-lang.org", "221.186.184.68"]
  p sock.peeraddr(:numeric)  #=> ["AF_INET", 80, "221.186.184.68", "221.186.184.68"]
}

UNIXSocket#peeraddr

Returns the remote address as an array which contains address_family and unix_path.

Example

serv = UNIXServer.new("/tmp/sock")
c = UNIXSocket.new("/tmp/sock")
p c.peeraddr #=> ["AF_UNIX", "/tmp/sock"]

StringIO#chars

This is a deprecated alias for each_char.

StringScanner#clear

Equivalent to terminate. This method is obsolete; use terminate instead.

StringScanner#charpos

Returns the character position of the scan pointer. In the ‘reset’ position, this value is zero. In the ‘terminated’ position (i.e. the string is exhausted), this value is the size of the string.

In short, it’s a 0-based index into the string.

s = StringScanner.new("abcädeföghi")
s.charpos           # -> 0
s.scan_until(/ä/)   # -> "abcä"
s.pos               # -> 5
s.charpos           # -> 4

WIN32OLE_TYPE#variables

Returns array of WIN32OLE_VARIABLE objects which represent variables defined in OLE class.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'XlSheetType')
vars = tobj.variables
vars.each do |v|
  puts "#{v.name} = #{v.value}"
end

The result of above sample script is follows:
  xlChart = -4109
  xlDialogSheet = -4116
  xlExcel4IntlMacroSheet = 4
  xlExcel4MacroSheet = 3
  xlWorksheet = -4167

WIN32OLE_VARIABLE#varkind

Returns the number which represents variable kind.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'XlSheetType')
variables = tobj.variables
variables.each do |variable|
  puts "#{variable.name} #{variable.varkind}"
end

The result of above script is following:
   xlChart 2
   xlDialogSheet 2
   xlExcel4IntlMacroSheet 2
   xlExcel4MacroSheet 2
   xlWorksheet 2

WIN32OLE_VARIANT#vartype

Returns OLE variant type.

obj = WIN32OLE_VARIANT.new("string")
obj.vartype # => WIN32OLE::VARIANT::VT_BSTR

Hash#clear

Removes all key-value pairs from hsh.

h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 }   #=> {"a"=>100, "b"=>200}
h.clear                          #=> {}

Hash#rassoc

Searches through the hash comparing obj with the value using ==. Returns the first key-value pair (two-element array) that matches. See also Array#rassoc.

a = {1=> "one", 2 => "two", 3 => "three", "ii" => "two"}
a.rassoc("two")    #=> [2, "two"]
a.rassoc("four")   #=> nil

ENV::clear

Removes every environment variable.

ENV::rassoc

Returns an Array of the name and value of the environment variable with value or nil if the value cannot be found.

ARGF#argv

Returns the ARGV array, which contains the arguments passed to your script, one per element.

For example:

$ ruby argf.rb -v glark.txt

ARGF.argv   #=> ["-v", "glark.txt"]

ARGF#chars

This is a deprecated alias for each_char.

ARGF#readpartial

Reads at most maxlen bytes from the ARGF stream.

If the optional outbuf argument is present, it must reference a String, which will receive the data. The outbuf will contain only the received data after the method call even if it is not empty at the beginning.

It raises EOFError on end of ARGF stream. Since ARGF stream is a concatenation of multiple files, internally EOF is occur for each file. ARGF.readpartial returns empty strings for EOFs except the last one and raises EOFError for the last one.

ARGF#readchar

Reads the next character from ARGF and returns it as a String. Raises an EOFError after the last character of the last file has been read.

For example:

$ echo "foo" > file
$ ruby argf.rb file

ARGF.readchar  #=> "f"
ARGF.readchar  #=> "o"
ARGF.readchar  #=> "o"
ARGF.readchar  #=> "\n"
ARGF.readchar  #=> end of file reached (EOFError)

CGI::parse

Parse an HTTP query string into a hash of key=>value pairs.

params = CGI::parse("query_string")
  # {"name1" => ["value1", "value2", ...],
  #  "name2" => ["value1", "value2", ...], ... }

CSV::generate

This method wraps a String you provide, or an empty default String, in a CSV object which is passed to the provided block. You can use the block to append CSV rows to the String and when the block exits, the final String will be returned.

Note that a passed String is modified by this method. Call dup() before passing if you need a new String.

The options parameter can be anything CSV::new() understands. This method understands an additional :encoding parameter when not passed a String to set the base Encoding for the output. CSV needs this hint if you plan to output non-ASCII compatible data.
