Gem::StubSpecification
reads the stub: line from the gemspec. This prevents us having to eval the entire gemspec in order to find out certain information.
Net::HTTP
exception class. You cannot use Net::HTTPExceptions
directly; instead, you must use its subclasses.
Keyword completion module. This allows partial arguments to be specified and resolved against a list of acceptable values.
Mixin methods for install and update options for Gem::Commands
Mixin methods for local and remote Gem::Command
options.
Module
that defines the default UserInteraction
. Any class including this module will have access to the ui
method that returns the default UI.
UserInteraction
allows RubyGems to interact with the user through standard methods that can be replaced with more-specific UI methods for different displays.
Since UserInteraction
dispatches to a concrete UI class you may need to reference other classes for specific behavior such as Gem::ConsoleUI
or Gem::SilentUI
.
Example:
class X include Gem::UserInteraction def get_answer n = ask("What is the meaning of life?") end end
A pointer to a C structure
Timer id conversion keeps objects alive for a certain amount of time after their last access. The default time period is 600 seconds and can be changed upon initialization.
To use TimerIdConv:
DRb.install_id_conv TimerIdConv.new 60 # one minute
WriteTimeout
, a subclass of Timeout::Error
, is raised if a chunk of the response cannot be written within the write_timeout. Not raised on Windows.
A base class for objects representing a C union
This exception is raised if a parser error occurs.
This exception is raised if the nesting of parsed data structures is too deep.
YAML
event parser class. This class parses a YAML
document and calls events on the handler that is passed to the constructor. The events can be used for things such as constructing a YAML
AST or deserializing YAML
documents. It can even be fed back to Psych::Emitter
to emit the same document that was parsed.
See Psych::Handler
for documentation on the events that Psych::Parser
emits.
Here is an example that prints out ever scalar found in a YAML
document:
# Handler for detecting scalar values class ScalarHandler < Psych::Handler def scalar value, anchor, tag, plain, quoted, style puts value end end parser = Psych::Parser.new(ScalarHandler.new) parser.parse(yaml_document)
Here is an example that feeds the parser back in to Psych::Emitter
. The YAML
document is read from STDIN and written back out to STDERR:
parser = Psych::Parser.new(Psych::Emitter.new($stderr)) parser.parse($stdin)
Psych
uses Psych::Parser
in combination with Psych::TreeBuilder
to construct an AST of the parsed YAML
document.
Subclass of Zlib::Error
When zlib returns a Z_VERSION_ERROR, usually if the zlib library version is incompatible with the version assumed by the caller.
exception to wait for writing by EAGAIN. see IO.select
.
exception to wait for writing by EWOULDBLOCK. see IO.select
