The Singleton module implements the Singleton pattern.

Usage

To use Singleton, include the module in your class.

class Klass
   include Singleton
   # ...
end

This ensures that only one instance of Klass can be created.

a,b  = Klass.instance, Klass.instance

a == b
# => true

Klass.new
# => NoMethodError - new is private ...

The instance is created at upon the first call of Klass.instance().

class OtherKlass
  include Singleton
  # ...
end

ObjectSpace.each_object(OtherKlass){}
# => 0

OtherKlass.instance
ObjectSpace.each_object(OtherKlass){}
# => 1

This behavior is preserved under inheritance and cloning.

Implementation

This above is achieved by:

• Making Klass.new and Klass.allocate private.

• Overriding Klass.inherited(sub_klass) and Klass.clone() to ensure that the Singleton properties are kept when inherited and cloned.

• Providing the Klass.instance() method that returns the same object each time it is called.

• Overriding Klass._load(str) to call Klass.instance().

• Overriding Klass#clone and Klass#dup to raise TypeErrors to prevent cloning or duping.

Singleton and Marshal

By default Singleton’s _dump(depth) returns the empty string. Marshalling by default will strip state information, e.g. instance variables and taint state, from the instance. Classes using Singleton can provide custom _load(str) and _dump(depth) methods to retain some of the previous state of the instance.

require 'singleton'

class Example
  include Singleton
  attr_accessor :keep, :strip
  def _dump(depth)
    # this strips the @strip information from the instance
    Marshal.dump(@keep, depth)
  end

  def self._load(str)
    instance.keep = Marshal.load(str)
    instance
  end
end

a = Example.instance
a.keep = "keep this"
a.strip = "get rid of this"
a.taint

stored_state = Marshal.dump(a)

a.keep = nil
a.strip = nil
b = Marshal.load(stored_state)
p a == b  #  => true
p a.keep  #  => "keep this"
p a.strip #  => nil

A custom InputMethod class used by XMP for evaluating string io.

RingFinger is used by RingServer clients to discover the RingServer’s TupleSpace. Typically, all a client needs to do is call RingFinger.primary to retrieve the remote TupleSpace, which it can then begin using.

To find the first available remote TupleSpace:

Rinda::RingFinger.primary

To create a RingFinger that broadcasts to a custom list:

rf = Rinda::RingFinger.new  ['localhost', '192.0.2.1']
rf.primary

Rinda::RingFinger also understands multicast addresses and sets them up properly. This allows you to run multiple RingServers on the same host:

rf = Rinda::RingFinger.new ['239.0.0.1']
rf.primary

You can set the hop count (or TTL) for multicast searches using multicast_hops.

If you use IPv6 multicast you may need to set both an address and the outbound interface index:

rf = Rinda::RingFinger.new ['ff02::1']
rf.multicast_interface = 1
rf.primary

At this time there is no easy way to get an interface index by name.

WIN32OLE_VARIABLE objects represent OLE variable information.

WIN32OLE_VARIANT objects represents OLE variant.

Win32OLE converts Ruby object into OLE variant automatically when invoking OLE methods. If OLE method requires the argument which is different from the variant by automatic conversion of Win32OLE, you can convert the specfied variant type by using WIN32OLE_VARIANT class.

param = WIN32OLE_VARIANT.new(10, WIN32OLE::VARIANT::VT_R4)
oleobj.method(param)

WIN32OLE_VARIANT does not support VT_RECORD variant. Use WIN32OLE_RECORD class instead of WIN32OLE_VARIANT if the VT_RECORD variant is needed.

Certain attributes are required on specific tags in an RSS feed. If a feed is missing one of these attributes, a MissingAttributeError is raised.

This exception is raised if the nesting of parsed data structures is too deep.

The InstructionSequence class represents a compiled sequence of instructions for the Ruby Virtual Machine.

With it, you can get a handle to the instructions that make up a method or a proc, compile strings of Ruby code down to VM instructions, and disassemble instruction sequences to strings for easy inspection. It is mostly useful if you want to learn how the Ruby VM works, but it also lets you control various settings for the Ruby iseq compiler.

You can find the source for the VM instructions in insns.def in the Ruby source.

The instruction sequence results will almost certainly change as Ruby changes, so example output in this documentation may be different from what you see.

Exception raised when there is an invalid encoding detected

PrettyPrint::SingleLine is used by PrettyPrint.singleline_format

It is passed to be similar to a PrettyPrint object itself, by responding to:

• text

• breakable

• nest

• group

• flush

• first?

but instead, the output has no line breaks

An implementation of PseudoPrimeGenerator which uses a prime table generated by trial division.

A RingServer allows a Rinda::TupleSpace to be located via UDP broadcasts. Default service location uses the following steps:

1. A RingServer begins listening on the network broadcast UDP address.

2. A RingFinger sends a UDP packet containing the DRb URI where it will listen for a reply.

3. The RingServer receives the UDP packet and connects back to the provided DRb URI with the DRb service.

A RingServer requires a TupleSpace:

ts = Rinda::TupleSpace.new
rs = Rinda::RingServer.new

RingServer can also listen on multicast addresses for announcements. This allows multiple RingServers to run on the same host. To use network broadcast and multicast:

ts = Rinda::TupleSpace.new
rs = Rinda::RingServer.new ts, %w[Socket::INADDR_ANY, 239.0.0.1 ff02::1]

RingProvider uses a RingServer advertised TupleSpace as a name service. TupleSpace clients can register themselves with the remote TupleSpace and look up other provided services via the remote TupleSpace.

Services are registered with a tuple of the format [:name, klass, DRbObject, description].

A test case for Gem::Installer.

AbstractSyntaxTree provides methods to parse Ruby code into abstract syntax trees. The nodes in the tree are instances of RubyVM::AbstractSyntaxTree::Node.

OpenSSL IO buffering mix-in module.

This module allows an OpenSSL::SSL::SSLSocket to behave like an IO.

You typically won’t use this module directly, you can see it implemented in OpenSSL::SSL::SSLSocket.

A template for stream parser listeners. Note that the declarations (attlistdecl, elementdecl, etc) are trivially processed; REXML doesn’t yet handle doctype entity declarations, so you have to parse them out yourself.
