Returns true if the given calendar date is valid, and false if not. Valid in this context is whether the arguments passed to this method would be accepted by ::new.

Date.valid_date?(2001,2,3)        #=> true
Date.valid_date?(2001,2,29)       #=> false
Date.valid_date?(2001,2,-1)       #=> true

Returns true if this class can be used to create an instance from a serialised JSON string. The class has to implement a class method json_create that expects a hash as first parameter. The hash should include the required data.

Returns garbage collector generation for the given object.

class B
  include ObjectSpace

  def foo
    trace_object_allocations do
      obj = Object.new
      p "Generation is #{allocation_generation(obj)}"
    end
  end
end

B.new.foo #=> "Generation is 3"

How String Gem paths should be split. Overridable for esoteric platforms.

Takes a hash as its argument. The key is a symbol or an array of symbols. These symbols correspond to method names, instance variable names, or constant names (see def_delegator). The value is the accessor to which the methods will be delegated.

Returns the status of the last executed child process in the current thread.

Process.wait Process.spawn("ruby", "-e", "exit 13")
Process.last_status   #=> #<Process::Status: pid 4825 exit 13>

If no child process has ever been executed in the current thread, this returns nil.

Process.last_status   #=> nil

Update the digest using given string and return self.

Encrypts data in a streaming fashion. Hand consecutive blocks of data to the update method in order to encrypt it. Returns the encrypted data chunk. When done, the output of Cipher#final should be additionally added to the result.

If buffer is given, the encryption/decryption result will be written to it. buffer will be resized automatically.

Not every message digest can be computed in one single pass. If a message digest is to be computed from several subsequent sources, then each may be passed individually to the Digest instance.

Example

digest = OpenSSL::Digest::SHA256.new
digest.update('First input')
digest << 'Second input' # equivalent to digest.update('Second input')
result = digest.digest

Returns hmac updated with the message to be authenticated. Can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message.

Example

first_chunk = 'The quick brown fox jumps '
second_chunk = 'over the lazy dog'

instance.update(first_chunk)
#=> 5b9a8038a65d571076d97fe783989e52278a492a
instance.update(second_chunk)
#=> de7c9b85b8b78aa6bc8a7a36f70a90701c9db4d9

Get the indentation level.

Set the indentation level to level. The level must be less than 10 and greater than 1.

Returns the exit status of the child for which PTY#check raised this exception

The scanner’s state of the current token. This value is the bitwise OR of zero or more of the Ripper::EXPR_* constants.

Logs a message at the fatal (syslog err) log level, or logs the message returned from the block.

Return a list of all outdated local gem names. This method is HEAVY as it must go fetch specifications from the server.

Use outdated_and_latest_version if you wish to retrieve the latest remote version as well.

The date this gem was created.

If SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set as an environment variable, use that to support reproducible builds; otherwise, default to the current UTC date.

DO NOT set this, it is set automatically when the gem is packaged.

Checks that the specification contains all required fields, and does a very basic sanity check.

Raises InvalidSpecificationException if the spec does not pass the checks..
