Results for: "minmax"

Positions the stream to the beginning of input, resetting lineno to zero.

See IO#readlines.

Returns the string being scanned.

Changes the string being scanned to str and resets the scanner. Returns str.

Returns the byte position of the scan pointer. In the ‘reset’ position, this value is zero. In the ‘terminated’ position (i.e. the string is exhausted), this value is the bytesize of the string.

In short, it’s a 0-based index into bytes of the string.

s = StringScanner.new('test string')
s.pos               # -> 0
s.scan_until /str/  # -> "test str"
s.pos               # -> 8
s.terminate         # -> #<StringScanner fin>
s.pos               # -> 11

Sets the byte position of the scan pointer.

s = StringScanner.new('test string')
s.pos = 7            # -> 7
s.rest               # -> "ring"

Tests whether the given pattern is matched from the current scan pointer. Returns the length of the match, or nil. The scan pointer is not advanced.

s = StringScanner.new('test string')
p s.match?(/\w+/)   # -> 4
p s.match?(/\w+/)   # -> 4
p s.match?("test")  # -> 4
p s.match?(/\s+/)   # -> nil

Returns true if and only if the last match was successful.

s = StringScanner.new('test string')
s.match?(/\w+/)     # => 4
s.matched?          # => true
s.match?(/\d+/)     # => nil
s.matched?          # => false

Returns the last matched string.

s = StringScanner.new('test string')
s.match?(/\w+/)     # -> 4
s.matched           # -> "test"

Returns a string that represents the StringScanner object, showing:

• the current position

• the size of the string

• the characters surrounding the scan pointer

  s = StringScanner.new(“Fri Dec 12 1975 14:39”) s.inspect # -> ‘#<StringScanner 0/21 @ “Fri D…”>’ s.scan_until /12/ # -> “Fri Dec 12” s.inspect # -> ‘#<StringScanner 10/21 “…ec 12” @ “ 1975…”>’

Runs OLE method. The first argument specifies the method name of OLE Automation object. The others specify argument of the method. If you can not execute method directly, then use this method instead.

excel = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application')
excel.invoke('Quit')  # => same as excel.Quit

Runs the early binding method. The 1st argument specifies dispatch ID, the 2nd argument specifies the array of arguments, the 3rd argument specifies the array of the type of arguments.

excel = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application')
excel._invoke(302, [], []) #  same effect as excel.Quit

Returns help string of OLE method. If the help string is not found, then the method returns nil.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Internet Controls', 'IWebBrowser')
method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'Navigate')
puts method.helpstring # => Navigates to a URL or file.

Returns the method name with class name.

Returns true if the parameter is input.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook')
method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs')
param1 = method.params[0]
puts param1.input? # => true

Returns the parameter name with class name. If the parameter has default value, then returns name=value string with class name.

Returns the OLE struct name and member name and the value of member

If COM server in VB.NET ComServer project is the following:

Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Public Class ComClass
    <MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.BStr)> _
    Public title As String
    Public cost As Integer
End Class

then

srver = WIN32OLE.new('ComServer.ComClass')
obj = WIN32OLE_RECORD.new('Book', server)
obj.inspect # => <WIN32OLE_RECORD(ComClass) {"title" => nil, "cost" => nil}>

Returns number which represents type.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Word 10.0 Object Library', 'Documents')
puts tobj.typekind # => 4

Returns help string.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Internet Controls', 'IWebBrowser')
puts tobj.helpstring # => Web Browser interface

Returns the type name with class name.

ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application')
ie.ole_type.inspect => #<WIN32OLE_TYPE:IWebBrowser2>

Returns the type library name with class name.

tlib = WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library')
tlib.inspect # => "<#WIN32OLE_TYPELIB:Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library>"

Returns the number which represents variable kind.

tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'XlSheetType')
variables = tobj.variables
variables.each do |variable|
  puts "#{variable.name} #{variable.varkind}"
end

The result of above script is following:
   xlChart 2
   xlDialogSheet 2
   xlExcel4IntlMacroSheet 2
   xlExcel4MacroSheet 2
   xlWorksheet 2

Returns the OLE variable name and the value with class name.

Returns a new String containing the hash entries:

h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
h.inspect # => "{:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2}"

Hash#to_s is an alias for Hash#inspect.

Returns a new Hash object with the each key-value pair inverted:

h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}
h1 = h.invert
h1 # => {0=>:foo, 1=>:bar, 2=>:baz}

Overwrites any repeated new keys: (see Entry Order):

h = {foo: 0, bar: 0, baz: 0}
h.invert # => {0=>:baz}
