Results for: "String# "

Invoked when a reference is made to an undefined constant in mod. It is passed a symbol for the undefined constant, and returns a value to be used for that constant. The following code is an example of the same:

def Foo.const_missing(name)
  name # return the constant name as Symbol
end

Foo::UNDEFINED_CONST    #=> :UNDEFINED_CONST: symbol returned

In the next example when a reference is made to an undefined constant, it attempts to load a file whose name is the lowercase version of the constant (thus class Fred is assumed to be in file fred.rb). If found, it returns the loaded class. It therefore implements an autoload feature similar to Kernel#autoload and Module#autoload.

def Object.const_missing(name)
  @looked_for ||= {}
  str_name = name.to_s
  raise "Class not found: #{name}" if @looked_for[str_name]
  @looked_for[str_name] = 1
  file = str_name.downcase
  require file
  klass = const_get(name)
  return klass if klass
  raise "Class not found: #{name}"
end

Returns the Encoding of the internal string if conversion is specified. Otherwise returns nil.

Returns the Encoding of the internal string if conversion is specified. Otherwise returns nil.

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.

Adds list of ACL entries to this ACL.

Returns true if this is a lower triangular matrix.

Returns true if this is an upper triangular matrix.

Outputs obj to out like PP.pp but with no indent and newline.

PP.singleline_pp returns out.

Returns the sharing detection flag as a boolean value. It is false (nil) by default.

Sets the sharing detection flag to b.

This is similar to PrettyPrint::format but the result has no breaks.

maxwidth, newline and genspace are ignored.

The invocation of breakable in the block doesn’t break a line and is treated as just an invocation of text.

Closes the incoming port and returns its previous state. All further attempts to Ractor.receive in the ractor, and send to the ractor will fail with Ractor::ClosedError.

r = Ractor.new {sleep(500)}
r.close_incoming  #=> false
r.close_incoming  #=> true
r.send('test')
# Ractor::ClosedError (The incoming-port is already closed)

Returns whether or not the asynchronous queue is empty.

Since Thread::handle_interrupt can be used to defer asynchronous events, this method can be used to determine if there are any deferred events.

If you find this method returns true, then you may finish :never blocks.

For example, the following method processes deferred asynchronous events immediately.

def Thread.kick_interrupt_immediately
  Thread.handle_interrupt(Object => :immediate) {
    Thread.pass
  }
end

If error is given, then check only for error type deferred events.

Usage

th = Thread.new{
  Thread.handle_interrupt(RuntimeError => :on_blocking){
    while true
      ...
      # reach safe point to invoke interrupt
      if Thread.pending_interrupt?
        Thread.handle_interrupt(Object => :immediate){}
      end
      ...
    end
  }
}
...
th.raise # stop thread

This example can also be written as the following, which you should use to avoid asynchronous interrupts.

flag = true
th = Thread.new{
  Thread.handle_interrupt(RuntimeError => :on_blocking){
    while true
      ...
      # reach safe point to invoke interrupt
      break if flag == false
      ...
    end
  }
}
...
flag = false # stop thread

Returns whether or not the asynchronous queue is empty for the target thread.

If error is given, then check only for error type deferred events.

See ::pending_interrupt? for more information.

Compiled instruction sequence represented by a RubyVM::InstructionSequence instance on the :script_compiled event.

Note that this method is MRI specific.

Returns the Base64-encoded version of bin. This method complies with RFC 4648. No line feeds are added.

Returns the Base64-decoded version of str. This method complies with RFC 4648. ArgumentError is raised if str is incorrectly padded or contains non-alphabet characters. Note that CR or LF are also rejected.

Adds a post-install hook that will be passed an Gem::Installer instance when Gem::Installer#install is called

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

Returns the destination encoding as an encoding object.

Returns the destination encoding as an encoding object.

Returns the destination encoding as an Encoding object.

Returns the index of the last element for which object == element.

When argument object is given but no block, returns the index of the last such element found:

a = [:foo, 'bar', 2, 'bar']
a.rindex('bar') # => 3

Returns nil if no such object found.

When a block is given but no argument, calls the block with each successive element; returns the index of the last element for which the block returns a truthy value:

a = [:foo, 'bar', 2, 'bar']
a.rindex {|element| element == 'bar' } # => 3

Returns nil if the block never returns a truthy value.

When neither an argument nor a block is given, returns a new Enumerator:

a = [:foo, 'bar', 2, 'bar']
e = a.rindex
e # => #<Enumerator: [:foo, "bar", 2, "bar"]:rindex>
e.each {|element| element == 'bar' } # => 3
