Adds a post-install hook that will be passed an Gem::Installer instance when Gem::Installer#install is called
Adds a post-installs hook that will be passed a Gem::DependencyInstaller and a list of installed specifications when Gem::DependencyInstaller#install is complete
Adds a post-uninstall hook that will be passed a Gem::Uninstaller instance and the spec that was uninstalled when Gem::Uninstaller#uninstall is called
Adds a pre-install hook that will be passed an Gem::Installer instance when Gem::Installer#install is called. If the hook returns false then the install will be aborted.
Adds a pre-uninstall hook that will be passed an Gem::Uninstaller instance and the spec that will be uninstalled when Gem::Uninstaller#uninstall is called
Installs the gem dep_or_name and all its dependencies. Returns an Array of installed gem specifications.
If the :prerelease option is set and there is a prerelease for dep_or_name the prerelease version will be installed.
Unless explicitly specified as a prerelease dependency, prerelease gems that dep_or_name depend on will not be installed.
If c-1.a depends on b-1 and a-1.a and there is a gem b-1.a available then c-1.a, b-1 and a-1.a will be installed. b-1.a will need to be installed separately.
Installs the gem and returns a loaded Gem::Specification for the installed gem.
The gem will be installed with the following structure:
@gem_home/ cache/<gem-version>.gem #=> a cached copy of the installed gem gems/<gem-version>/... #=> extracted files specifications/<gem-version>.gemspec #=> the Gem::Specification
Installs gems for this RequestSet using the Gem::Installer options.
If a block is given an activation request and installer are yielded. The installer will be nil if a gem matching the request was already installed.
Performs the uninstall of the gem. This removes the spec, the Gem directory, and the cached .gem file.
Returns true if all bits of int & mask are 1.
Returns a copy of str with the first character converted to uppercase and the remainder to lowercase.
See String#downcase for meaning of options and use with different encodings.
"hello".capitalize #=> "Hello" "HELLO".capitalize #=> "Hello" "123ABC".capitalize #=> "123abc"
Modifies str by converting the first character to uppercase and the remainder to lowercase. Returns nil if no changes are made.
See String#downcase for meaning of options and use with different encodings.
a = "hello" a.capitalize! #=> "Hello" a #=> "Hello" a.capitalize! #=> nil
Invokes the continuation. The program continues from the end of the callcc block. If no arguments are given, the original callcc returns nil. If one argument is given, callcc returns it. Otherwise, an array containing args is returned.
callcc {|cont| cont.call } #=> nil callcc {|cont| cont.call 1 } #=> 1 callcc {|cont| cont.call 1, 2, 3 } #=> [1, 2, 3]
Same as sym.to_s.capitalize.intern.
Allocates space for a new object of class’s class and does not call initialize on the new instance. The returned object must be an instance of class.
klass = Class.new do def initialize(*args) @initialized = true end def initialized? @initialized || false end end klass.allocate.initialized? #=> false
Returns true iff the current severity level allows for the printing of FATAL messages.
Invokes the block, setting the block’s parameters to the values in params using something close to method calling semantics. Returns the value of the last expression evaluated in the block.
a_proc = Proc.new {|scalar, *values| values.map {|value| value*scalar } } a_proc.call(9, 1, 2, 3) #=> [9, 18, 27] a_proc[9, 1, 2, 3] #=> [9, 18, 27] a_proc.(9, 1, 2, 3) #=> [9, 18, 27] a_proc.yield(9, 1, 2, 3) #=> [9, 18, 27]
Note that prc.() invokes prc.call() with the parameters given. It’s syntactic sugar to hide “call”.
For procs created using lambda or ->() an error is generated if the wrong number of parameters are passed to the proc. For procs created using Proc.new or Kernel.proc, extra parameters are silently discarded and missing parameters are set to nil.
a_proc = proc {|a,b| [a,b] } a_proc.call(1) #=> [1, nil] a_proc = lambda {|a,b| [a,b] } a_proc.call(1) # ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)

a_proc = Proc.new {|scalar, *values| values.map {|value| value*scalar } } a_proc.call(9, 1, 2, 3) #=> [9, 18, 27] a_proc[9, 1, 2, 3] #=> [9, 18, 27] a_proc.(9, 1, 2, 3) #=> [9, 18, 27] a_proc.yield(9, 1, 2, 3) #=> [9, 18, 27]

Generates a Continuation object, which it passes to the associated block. You need to require 'continuation' before using this method. Performing a cont.call will cause the callcc to return (as will falling through the end of the block). The value returned by the callcc is the value of the block, or the value passed to cont.call. See class Continuation for more details. Also see Kernel#throw for an alternative mechanism for unwinding a call stack.
