Set the effective group ID, and if possible, the saved group ID of the process to the given group. Returns the new effective group ID. Not available on all platforms.
[Process.gid, Process.egid] #=> [0, 0] Process::GID.grant_privilege(31) #=> 33 [Process.gid, Process.egid] #=> [0, 33]
Returns true if the real and effective group IDs of a process may be exchanged on the current platform.
Returns true if the current platform has saved group ID functionality.
@param [Object] underlying_error @return [Conflict] a {Conflict} that reflects the failure to activate
the {#possibility} in conjunction with the current {#state}
Get all [gem, version] from the command line.
An argument in the form gem:ver is pull apart into the gen name and version, respectively.
Performs elliptic curve point multiplication.
The first form calculates bn1 * point + bn2 * G, where G is the generator of the group of point. bn2 may be omitted, and in that case, the result is just bn1 * point.
The second form calculates bns[0] * point + bns[1] * points[0] + ... + bns[-1] * points[-1] + bn2 * G. bn2 may be omitted. bns must be an array of OpenSSL::BN. points must be an array of OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Point. Please note that points[0] is not multiplied by bns[0], but bns[1].
Is this tar entry a file?
Returns a string representation of lex_state.
Returns true for IPv6 multicast node-local scope address. It returns false otherwise.
Displays helpfile. The 1st argument specifies WIN32OLE_TYPE object or WIN32OLE_METHOD object or helpfile.
excel = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application') typeobj = excel.ole_type WIN32OLE.ole_show_help(typeobj)
Returns WIN32OLE object for a specific dispatch or dual interface specified by iid.
ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application') ie_web_app = ie.ole_query_interface('{0002DF05-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}') # => WIN32OLE object for dispinterface IWebBrowserApp
Returns WIN32OLE_TYPE object.
excel = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application') tobj = excel.ole_type
Returns detail information of type of argument.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'IWorksheetFunction') method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SumIf') param1 = method.params[0] p param1.ole_type_detail # => ["PTR", "USERDEFINED", "Range"]
Returns the array of WIN32OLE_TYPE object which is implemented by the WIN32OLE_TYPE object and having IMPLTYPEFLAG_FSOURCE.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Internet Controls', "InternetExplorer") p tobj.source_ole_types # => [#<WIN32OLE_TYPE:DWebBrowserEvents2>, #<WIN32OLE_TYPE:DWebBrowserEvents>]
Returns the array of WIN32OLE_TYPE object which is implemented by the WIN32OLE_TYPE object and having IMPLTYPEFLAG_FSOURCE and IMPLTYPEFLAG_FDEFAULT.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Internet Controls', "InternetExplorer") p tobj.default_event_sources # => [#<WIN32OLE_TYPE:DWebBrowserEvents2>]
Returns detail information of type. The information is array of type.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('DirectX 7 for Visual Basic Type Library', 'D3DCLIPSTATUS') variable = tobj.variables.find {|variable| variable.name == 'lFlags'} tdetail = variable.ole_type_detail p tdetail # => ["USERDEFINED", "CONST_D3DCLIPSTATUSFLAGS"]
Render a template on a new toplevel binding with local variables specified by a Hash object.
Returns the value of the local variable symbol.
def foo a = 1 binding.local_variable_get(:a) #=> 1 binding.local_variable_get(:b) #=> NameError end
This method is the short version of the following code:
binding.eval("#{symbol}")
Set local variable named symbol as obj.
def foo a = 1 bind = binding bind.local_variable_set(:a, 2) # set existing local variable `a' bind.local_variable_set(:b, 3) # create new local variable `b' # `b' exists only in binding p bind.local_variable_get(:a) #=> 2 p bind.local_variable_get(:b) #=> 3 p a #=> 2 p b #=> NameError end
This method behaves similarly to the following code:
binding.eval("#{symbol} = #{obj}")
if obj can be dumped in Ruby code.
Returns true if a local variable symbol exists.
def foo a = 1 binding.local_variable_defined?(:a) #=> true binding.local_variable_defined?(:b) #=> false end
This method is the short version of the following code:
binding.eval("defined?(#{symbol}) == 'local-variable'")
Breaks the buffer into lines that are shorter than maxwidth
Returns the value of a thread local variable that has been set. Note that these are different than fiber local values. For fiber local values, please see Thread#[] and Thread#[]=.
Thread local values are carried along with threads, and do not respect fibers. For example:
Thread.new { Thread.current.thread_variable_set("foo", "bar") # set a thread local Thread.current["foo"] = "bar" # set a fiber local Fiber.new { Fiber.yield [ Thread.current.thread_variable_get("foo"), # get the thread local Thread.current["foo"], # get the fiber local ] }.resume }.join.value # => ['bar', nil]
The value “bar” is returned for the thread local, where nil is returned for the fiber local. The fiber is executed in the same thread, so the thread local values are available.
