Map from option/keyword string to object with completion.
Raises when a switch with mandatory argument has no argument.
PrettyPrint::SingleLine is used by PrettyPrint.singleline_format
It is passed to be similar to a PrettyPrint object itself, by responding to:
but instead, the output has no line breaks
RingFinger is used by RingServer clients to discover the RingServer’s TupleSpace. Typically, all a client needs to do is call RingFinger.primary to retrieve the remote TupleSpace, which it can then begin using.
To find the first available remote TupleSpace:
Rinda::RingFinger.primary
To create a RingFinger that broadcasts to a custom list:
rf = Rinda::RingFinger.new ['localhost', '192.0.2.1'] rf.primary
Rinda::RingFinger also understands multicast addresses and sets them up properly. This allows you to run multiple RingServers on the same host:
rf = Rinda::RingFinger.new ['239.0.0.1'] rf.primary
You can set the hop count (or TTL) for multicast searches using multicast_hops.
If you use IPv6 multicast you may need to set both an address and the outbound interface index:
rf = Rinda::RingFinger.new ['ff02::1'] rf.multicast_interface = 1 rf.primary
At this time there is no easy way to get an interface index by name.
The command manager registers and installs all the individual sub-commands supported by the gem command.
Extra commands can be provided by writing a rubygems_plugin.rb file in an installed gem. You should register your command against the Gem::CommandManager instance, like this:
# file rubygems_plugin.rb require 'rubygems/command_manager' Gem::CommandManager.instance.register_command :edit
You should put the implementation of your command in rubygems/commands.
# file rubygems/commands/edit_command.rb class Gem::Commands::EditCommand < Gem::Command # ... end
See Gem::Command for instructions on writing gem commands.
Raised when trying to activate a gem, and that gem does not exist on the system. Instead of rescuing from this class, make sure to rescue from the superclass Gem::LoadError to catch all types of load errors.
Raised when trying to activate a gem, and the gem exists on the system, but not the requested version. Instead of rescuing from this class, make sure to rescue from the superclass Gem::LoadError to catch all types of load errors.
Generated when trying to lookup a gem to indicate that the gem was found, but that it isn’t usable on the current platform.
fetch and install read these and report them to the user to aid in figuring out why a gem couldn’t be installed.
Raised when a mathematical function is evaluated outside of its domain of definition.
For example, since cos returns values in the range -1..1, its inverse function acos is only defined on that interval:
Math.acos(42)
produces:
Math::DomainError: Numerical argument is out of domain - "acos"
Helper methods for both Gem::Installer and Gem::Uninstaller
WIN32OLE_EVENT objects controls OLE event.
WIN32OLE_METHOD objects represent OLE method information.
WIN32OLE_PARAM objects represent param information of the OLE method.
WIN32OLE_RECORD objects represents VT_RECORD OLE variant. Win32OLE returns WIN32OLE_RECORD object if the result value of invoking OLE methods.
If COM server in VB.NET ComServer project is the following:
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Public Class ComClass
Public Structure Book
<MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.BStr)> _
Public title As String
Public cost As Integer
End Structure
Public Function getBook() As Book
Dim book As New Book
book.title = "The Ruby Book"
book.cost = 20
Return book
End Function
End Class
then, you can retrieve getBook return value from the following Ruby script:
require 'win32ole' obj = WIN32OLE.new('ComServer.ComClass') book = obj.getBook book.class # => WIN32OLE_RECORD book.title # => "The Ruby Book" book.cost # => 20
WIN32OLE_TYPE objects represent OLE type library information.
WIN32OLE_TYPELIB objects represent OLE tyblib information.
WIN32OLE_VARIABLE objects represent OLE variable information.
WIN32OLE_VARIANT objects represents OLE variant.
Win32OLE converts Ruby object into OLE variant automatically when invoking OLE methods. If OLE method requires the argument which is different from the variant by automatic conversion of Win32OLE, you can convert the specified variant type by using WIN32OLE_VARIANT class.
param = WIN32OLE_VARIANT.new(10, WIN32OLE::VARIANT::VT_R4) oleobj.method(param)
WIN32OLE_VARIANT does not support VT_RECORD variant. Use WIN32OLE_RECORD class instead of WIN32OLE_VARIANT if the VT_RECORD variant is needed.
This is not an existing class, but documentation of the interface that Scheduler object should comply to in order to be used as argument to Fiber.scheduler and handle non-blocking fibers. See also the “Non-blocking fibers” section in Fiber class docs for explanations of some concepts.
Scheduler’s behavior and usage are expected to be as follows:
When the execution in the non-blocking Fiber reaches some blocking operation (like sleep, wait for a process, or a non-ready I/O), it calls some of the scheduler’s hook methods, listed below.
Scheduler somehow registers what the current fiber is waiting on, and yields control to other fibers with Fiber.yield (so the fiber would be suspended while expecting its wait to end, and other fibers in the same thread can perform)
At the end of the current thread execution, the scheduler’s method close is called
The scheduler runs into a wait loop, checking all the blocked fibers (which it has registered on hook calls) and resuming them when the awaited resource is ready (e.g. I/O ready or sleep time elapsed).
A typical implementation would probably rely for this closing loop on a gem like EventMachine or Async.
This way concurrent execution will be achieved transparently for every individual Fiber’s code.
Hook methods are:
(the list is expanded as Ruby developers make more methods having non-blocking calls)
When not specified otherwise, the hook implementations are mandatory: if they are not implemented, the methods trying to call hook will fail. To provide backward compatibility, in the future hooks will be optional (if they are not implemented, due to the scheduler being created for the older Ruby version, the code which needs this hook will not fail, and will just behave in a blocking fashion).
It is also strongly recommended that the scheduler implements the fiber method, which is delegated to by Fiber.schedule.
Sample toy implementation of the scheduler can be found in Ruby’s code, in test/fiber/scheduler.rb
