Returns true if sym starts with one of the prefixes given. Each of the prefixes should be a String or a Regexp.
:hello.start_with?("hell") #=> true :hello.start_with?(/H/i) #=> true # returns true if one of the prefixes matches. :hello.start_with?("heaven", "hell") #=> true :hello.start_with?("heaven", "paradise") #=> false
Returns true if sym ends with one of the suffixes given.
:hello.end_with?("ello") #=> true # returns true if one of the +suffixes+ matches. :hello.end_with?("heaven", "ello") #=> true :hello.end_with?("heaven", "paradise") #=> false
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 an Array of values corresponding to the given keys.
Iterates over each key-value pair in the database.
If no block is given, returns an Enumerator.
creates an Addrinfo object from the arguments.
The arguments are interpreted as similar to self.
Addrinfo.tcp("0.0.0.0", 4649).family_addrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", 80) #=> #<Addrinfo: 221.186.184.68:80 TCP (www.ruby-lang.org:80)> Addrinfo.unix("/tmp/sock").family_addrinfo("/tmp/sock2") #=> #<Addrinfo: /tmp/sock2 SOCK_STREAM>
creates a new Socket connected to the address of local_addrinfo.
If local_addrinfo is nil, the address of the socket is not bound.
The timeout specify the seconds for timeout. Errno::ETIMEDOUT is raised when timeout occur.
If a block is given the created socket is yielded for each address.
Returns the IP address and port number as 2-element array.
Addrinfo.tcp("127.0.0.1", 80).ip_unpack #=> ["127.0.0.1", 80] Addrinfo.tcp("::1", 80).ip_unpack #=> ["::1", 80]
Returns true for IPv4 private address (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16). It returns false otherwise.
Returns the Encoding object that represents the encoding of the file. If the stream is write mode and no encoding is specified, returns nil.
Returns the Encoding of the internal string if conversion is specified. Otherwise returns nil.
Returns the size of the most recent match (see matched), or nil if there was no recent match.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.check /\w+/ # -> "test" s.matched_size # -> 4 s.check /\d+/ # -> nil s.matched_size # -> nil
Returns the pre-match
(in the regular expression sense) of the last scan.s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "test" s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " " s.pre_match # -> "test" s.post_match # -> "string"
Returns the post-match
(in the regular expression sense) of the last scan.s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "test" s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " " s.pre_match # -> "test" s.post_match # -> "string"
Returns the subgroups in the most recent match at the given indices. If nothing was priorly matched, it returns nil.
s = StringScanner.new("Fri Dec 12 1975 14:39") s.scan(/(\w+) (\w+) (\d+) /) # -> "Fri Dec 12 " s.values_at 0, -1, 5, 2 # -> ["Fri Dec 12 ", "12", nil, "Dec"] s.scan(/(\w+) (\w+) (\d+) /) # -> nil s.values_at 0, -1, 5, 2 # -> nil
Creates GUID.
WIN32OLE.create_guid # => {1CB530F1-F6B1-404D-BCE6-1959BF91F4A8}
Translates and dispatches Windows message.
Calls block once for each key in hsh, passing the key-value pair as parameters.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
h = { "a" => 100, "b" => 200 } h.each {|key, value| puts "#{key} is #{value}" }
produces:
a is 100 b is 200
Return an array containing the values associated with the given keys. Also see Hash.select.
h = { "cat" => "feline", "dog" => "canine", "cow" => "bovine" } h.values_at("cow", "cat") #=> ["bovine", "feline"]
Yields each environment variable name and its value as a 2-element Array:
h = {} ENV.each_pair { |name, value| h[name] = value } # => ENV h # => {"bar"=>"1", "foo"=>"0"}
Returns an Enumerator if no block given:
h = {} e = ENV.each_pair # => #<Enumerator: {"bar"=>"1", "foo"=>"0"}:each_pair> e.each { |name, value| h[name] = value } # => ENV h # => {"bar"=>"1", "foo"=>"0"}
Returns an array containing the environment variable values associated with the given names. See also ENV.select.
Returns the external encoding for files read from ARGF as an Encoding object. The external encoding is the encoding of the text as stored in a file. Contrast with ARGF.internal_encoding, which is the encoding used to represent this text within Ruby.
To set the external encoding use ARGF.set_encoding.
For example:
ARGF.external_encoding #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
Returns the internal encoding for strings read from ARGF as an Encoding object.
If ARGF.set_encoding has been called with two encoding names, the second is returned. Otherwise, if Encoding.default_external has been set, that value is returned. Failing that, if a default external encoding was specified on the command-line, that value is used. If the encoding is unknown, nil is returned.
