Creates a Range
object for the network address.
Returns the names of the binding’s local variables as symbols.
def foo a = 1 2.times do |n| binding.local_variables #=> [:a, :n] end end
This method is the short version of the following code:
binding.eval("local_variables")
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number of the binding object.
Returns range or nil
Returns true
if this is an upper triangular matrix.
Private. Use Matrix#determinant
Returns the determinant of the matrix, using Bareiss’ multistep integer-preserving gaussian elimination. It has the same computational cost order O(n^3) as standard Gaussian elimination. Intermediate results are fraction free and of lower complexity. A matrix of Integers will have thus intermediate results that are also Integers, with smaller bignums (if any), while a matrix of Float
will usually have intermediate results with better precision.
Returns the inner product of this vector with the other.
Vector[4,7].inner_product Vector[10,1] # => 47
Program name to be emitted in error message and default banner, defaults to $0.
Returns additional info.
Load the given PStore
file. If read_only
is true, the unmarshalled Hash
will be returned. If read_only
is false, a 3-tuple will be returned: the unmarshalled Hash
, a checksum of the data, and the size of the data.
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this proc or nil
if this proc was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns a Method
of superclass which would be called when super is used or nil if there is no method on superclass.
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns a Method
of superclass which would be called when super is used or nil if there is no method on superclass.
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)
Closes the outgoing port and returns its previous state. All further attempts to Ractor.yield
in the ractor, and take
from the ractor will fail with Ractor::ClosedError
.
r = Ractor.new {sleep(500)} r.close_outgoing #=> false r.close_outgoing #=> true r.take # Ractor::ClosedError (The outgoing-port is already closed)
Returns the status of the global “ignore deadlock” condition. The default is false
, so that deadlock conditions are not ignored.
See also ::ignore_deadlock=
.
Returns the new state. When set to true
, the VM will not check for deadlock conditions. It is only useful to set this if your application can break a deadlock condition via some other means, such as a signal.
Thread.ignore_deadlock = true queue = Queue.new trap(:SIGUSR1){queue.push "Received signal"} # raises fatal error unless ignoring deadlock puts queue.pop

.
Changes asynchronous interrupt timing.
interrupt means asynchronous event and corresponding procedure by Thread#raise
, Thread#kill
, signal trap (not supported yet) and main thread termination (if main thread terminates, then all other thread will be killed).
The given hash
has pairs like ExceptionClass => :TimingSymbol
. Where the ExceptionClass is the interrupt handled by the given block. The TimingSymbol can be one of the following symbols:
:immediate
Invoke interrupts immediately.
:on_blocking
Invoke interrupts while BlockingOperation.
:never
Never invoke all interrupts.
BlockingOperation means that the operation will block the calling thread, such as read and write. On CRuby implementation, BlockingOperation is any operation executed without GVL.
Masked asynchronous interrupts are delayed until they are enabled. This method is similar to sigprocmask(3).
Asynchronous interrupts are difficult to use.
If you need to communicate between threads, please consider to use another way such as Queue
.
Or use them with deep understanding about this method.
In this example, we can guard from Thread#raise
exceptions.
Using the :never
TimingSymbol the RuntimeError
exception will always be ignored in the first block of the main thread. In the second ::handle_interrupt
block we can purposefully handle RuntimeError
exceptions.
th = Thread.new do Thread.handle_interrupt(RuntimeError => :never) { begin # You can write resource allocation code safely. Thread.handle_interrupt(RuntimeError => :immediate) { # ... } ensure # You can write resource deallocation code safely. end } end Thread.pass # ... th.raise "stop"
While we are ignoring the RuntimeError
exception, it’s safe to write our resource allocation code. Then, the ensure block is where we can safely deallocate your resources.
Timeout::Error
In the next example, we will guard from the Timeout::Error
exception. This will help prevent from leaking resources when Timeout::Error
exceptions occur during normal ensure clause. For this example we use the help of the standard library Timeout
, from lib/timeout.rb
require 'timeout' Thread.handle_interrupt(Timeout::Error => :never) { timeout(10){ # Timeout::Error doesn't occur here Thread.handle_interrupt(Timeout::Error => :on_blocking) { # possible to be killed by Timeout::Error # while blocking operation } # Timeout::Error doesn't occur here } }
In the first part of the timeout
block, we can rely on Timeout::Error
being ignored. Then in the Timeout::Error => :on_blocking
block, any operation that will block the calling thread is susceptible to a Timeout::Error
exception being raised.
It’s possible to stack multiple levels of ::handle_interrupt
blocks in order to control more than one ExceptionClass and TimingSymbol at a time.
Thread.handle_interrupt(FooError => :never) { Thread.handle_interrupt(BarError => :never) { # FooError and BarError are prohibited. } }
All exceptions inherited from the ExceptionClass parameter will be considered.
Thread.handle_interrupt(Exception => :never) { # all exceptions inherited from Exception are prohibited. }
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.
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
