Returns IO instance tied to ARGF for writing if inplace mode is enabled.

Prints all threads in @thread_list to @stdout. Returns a sorted array of values from the @thread_list hash.

While in the debugger you can list all of the threads with: DEBUGGER__.thread_list_all

(rdb:1) DEBUGGER__.thread_list_all
+1 #<Thread:0x007fb2320c03f0 run> debug_me.rb.rb:3
 2 #<Thread:0x007fb23218a538@debug_me.rb.rb:3 sleep>
 3 #<Thread:0x007fb23218b0f0@debug_me.rb.rb:3 sleep>
[1, 2, 3]

Your current thread is indicated by a +

Additionally you can list all threads with th l

(rdb:1) th l
 +1 #<Thread:0x007f99328c0410 run>  debug_me.rb:3
  2 #<Thread:0x007f9932938230@debug_me.rb:3 sleep> debug_me.rb:3
  3 #<Thread:0x007f9932938e10@debug_me.rb:3 sleep> debug_me.rb:3

Returns the value of the local variable symbol.

def foo
  a = 1
  binding.local_variable_get(:a) #=> 1
  binding.local_variable_get(:b) #=> NameError
end

This method is the short version of the following code:

binding.eval("#{symbol}")

Set local variable named symbol as obj.

def foo
  a = 1
  bind = binding
  bind.local_variable_set(:a, 2) # set existing local variable `a'
  bind.local_variable_set(:b, 3) # create new local variable `b'
                                 # `b' exists only in binding

  p bind.local_variable_get(:a)  #=> 2
  p bind.local_variable_get(:b)  #=> 3
  p a                            #=> 2
  p b                            #=> NameError
end

This method behaves similarly to the following code:

binding.eval("#{symbol} = #{obj}")

if obj can be dumped in Ruby code.

Same as each, but the row index and column index in addition to the element

Matrix[ [1,2], [3,4] ].each_with_index do |e, row, col|
  puts "#{e} at #{row}, #{col}"
end
  # => Prints:
  #    1 at 0, 0
  #    2 at 0, 1
  #    3 at 1, 0
  #    4 at 1, 1

Breaks the buffer into lines that are shorter than maxwidth

Returns the value of a thread local variable that has been set. Note that these are different than fiber local values. For fiber local values, please see Thread#[] and Thread#[]=.

Thread local values are carried along with threads, and do not respect fibers. For example:

Thread.new {
  Thread.current.thread_variable_set("foo", "bar") # set a thread local
  Thread.current["foo"] = "bar"                    # set a fiber local

  Fiber.new {
    Fiber.yield [
      Thread.current.thread_variable_get("foo"), # get the thread local
      Thread.current["foo"],                     # get the fiber local
    ]
  }.resume
}.join.value # => ['bar', nil]

The value “bar” is returned for the thread local, where nil is returned for the fiber local. The fiber is executed in the same thread, so the thread local values are available.

Sets a thread local with key to value. Note that these are local to threads, and not to fibers. Please see Thread#thread_variable_get and Thread#[] for more information.

Establishes proc on thr as the handler for tracing, or disables tracing if the parameter is nil.

See Kernel#set_trace_func.

Adds proc as a handler for tracing.

See Thread#set_trace_func and Kernel#set_trace_func.

Establishes proc as the handler for tracing, or disables tracing if the parameter is nil.

Note: this method is obsolete, please use TracePoint instead.

proc takes up to six parameters:

• an event name

• a filename

• a line number

• an object id

• a binding

• the name of a class

proc is invoked whenever an event occurs.

Events are:

c-call

call a C-language routine

c-return

return from a C-language routine

call

call a Ruby method

class

start a class or module definition

end

finish a class or module definition

line

execute code on a new line

raise

raise an exception

return

return from a Ruby method

Tracing is disabled within the context of proc.

  class Test
  def test
    a = 1
    b = 2
  end
  end

  set_trace_func proc { |event, file, line, id, binding, classname|
     printf "%8s %s:%-2d %10s %8s\n", event, file, line, id, classname
  }
  t = Test.new
  t.test

    line prog.rb:11               false
  c-call prog.rb:11        new    Class
  c-call prog.rb:11 initialize   Object
c-return prog.rb:11 initialize   Object
c-return prog.rb:11        new    Class
    line prog.rb:12               false
    call prog.rb:2        test     Test
    line prog.rb:3        test     Test
    line prog.rb:4        test     Test
  return prog.rb:4        test     Test

Calls block with two arguments, the item and its index, for each item in enum. Given arguments are passed through to each().

If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.

hash = Hash.new
%w(cat dog wombat).each_with_index { |item, index|
  hash[item] = index
}
hash   #=> {"cat"=>0, "dog"=>1, "wombat"=>2}

Attempts to enter exclusive section. Returns false if lock fails.

Starts tracing object allocations from the ObjectSpace extension module.

For example:

require 'objspace'

class C
  include ObjectSpace

  def foo
    trace_object_allocations do
      obj = Object.new
      p "#{allocation_sourcefile(obj)}:#{allocation_sourceline(obj)}"
    end
  end
end

C.new.foo #=> "objtrace.rb:8"

This example has included the ObjectSpace module to make it easier to read, but you can also use the ::trace_object_allocations notation (recommended).

Note that this feature introduces a huge performance decrease and huge memory consumption.
