Returns any backtrace associated with the exception. This method is similar to Exception#backtrace, but the backtrace is an array of Thread::Backtrace::Location.
This method is not affected by Exception#set_backtrace().
Sets the backtrace information associated with exc. The backtrace must be an array of String objects or a single String in the format described in Exception#backtrace.
Defines a named attribute for this module, where the name is symbol.id2name, creating an instance variable (@name) and a corresponding access method to read it. Also creates a method called name= to set the attribute. String arguments are converted to symbols. Returns an array of defined method names as symbols.
module Mod attr_accessor(:one, :two) #=> [:one, :one=, :two, :two=] end Mod.instance_methods.sort #=> [:one, :one=, :two, :two=]
Returns an array containing the names of the public and protected instance methods in the receiver. For a module, these are the public and protected methods; for a class, they are the instance (not singleton) methods. If the optional parameter is false, the methods of any ancestors are not included.
module A def method1() end end class B include A def method2() end end class C < B def method3() end end A.instance_methods(false) #=> [:method1] B.instance_methods(false) #=> [:method2] B.instance_methods(true).include?(:method1) #=> true C.instance_methods(false) #=> [:method3] C.instance_methods.include?(:method2) #=> true
Returns an UnboundMethod representing the given instance method in mod.
class Interpreter def do_a() print "there, "; end def do_d() print "Hello "; end def do_e() print "!\n"; end def do_v() print "Dave"; end Dispatcher = { "a" => instance_method(:do_a), "d" => instance_method(:do_d), "e" => instance_method(:do_e), "v" => instance_method(:do_v) } def interpret(string) string.each_char {|b| Dispatcher[b].bind(self).call } end end interpreter = Interpreter.new interpreter.interpret('dave')
produces:
Hello there, Dave!
Makes new_name a new copy of the method old_name. This can be used to retain access to methods that are overridden.
module Mod alias_method :orig_exit, :exit #=> :orig_exit def exit(code=0) puts "Exiting with code #{code}" orig_exit(code) end end include Mod exit(99)
produces:
Exiting with code 99
Execute the provided block, but preserve the precision limit
BigDecimal.limit(100) puts BigDecimal.limit BigDecimal.save_limit do BigDecimal.limit(200) puts BigDecimal.limit end puts BigDecimal.limit
Return the accept character set for all new CGI instances.
Just returns true. It’s nonsense, but is for symmetry.
Date.valid_jd?(2451944) #=> true
See also ::jd.
Returns true if the given ordinal date is valid, and false if not.
Date.valid_ordinal?(2001,34) #=> true Date.valid_ordinal?(2001,366) #=> false
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 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 the given week date is valid, and false if not.
Date.valid_commercial?(2001,5,6) #=> true Date.valid_commercial?(2001,5,8) #=> false
See also ::jd and ::commercial.
Returns true if the given year is a leap year of the proleptic Julian calendar.
Date.julian_leap?(1900) #=> true Date.julian_leap?(1901) #=> false
Executes the block for every line in ios, where lines are separated by sep. ios must be opened for reading or an IOError will be raised.
If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.
f = File.new("testfile") f.each {|line| puts "#{f.lineno}: #{line}" }
produces:
1: This is line one 2: This is line two 3: This is line three 4: And so on...
See IO.readlines for details about getline_args.
Dup internal hash.
Clone internal hash.
Iterates over each line in the file and yields a String object for each.
Accepts an incoming connection using accept(2) after O_NONBLOCK is set for the underlying file descriptor. It returns an array containing the accepted socket for the incoming connection, client_socket, and an Addrinfo, client_addrinfo.
# In one script, start this first require 'socket' include Socket::Constants socket = Socket.new(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0) sockaddr = Socket.sockaddr_in(2200, 'localhost') socket.bind(sockaddr) socket.listen(5) begin # emulate blocking accept client_socket, client_addrinfo = socket.accept_nonblock rescue IO::WaitReadable, Errno::EINTR IO.select([socket]) retry end puts "The client said, '#{client_socket.readline.chomp}'" client_socket.puts "Hello from script one!" socket.close # In another script, start this second require 'socket' include Socket::Constants socket = Socket.new(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0) sockaddr = Socket.sockaddr_in(2200, 'localhost') socket.connect(sockaddr) socket.puts "Hello from script 2." puts "The server said, '#{socket.readline.chomp}'" socket.close
Refer to Socket#accept for the exceptions that may be thrown if the call to accept_nonblock fails.
Socket#accept_nonblock may raise any error corresponding to accept(2) failure, including Errno::EWOULDBLOCK.
If the exception is Errno::EWOULDBLOCK, Errno::EAGAIN, Errno::ECONNABORTED or Errno::EPROTO, it is extended by IO::WaitReadable. So IO::WaitReadable can be used to rescue the exceptions for retrying accept_nonblock.
By specifying a keyword argument exception to false, you can indicate that accept_nonblock should not raise an IO::WaitReadable exception, but return the symbol :wait_readable instead.
