creates TCP/IP server sockets for host and port. host is optional.
If no block given, it returns an array of listening sockets.
If a block is given, the block is called with the sockets. The value of the block is returned. The socket is closed when this method returns.
If port is 0, actual port number is chosen dynamically. However all sockets in the result has same port number.
# tcp_server_sockets returns two sockets. sockets = Socket.tcp_server_sockets(1296) p sockets #=> [#<Socket:fd 3>, #<Socket:fd 4>] # The sockets contains IPv6 and IPv4 sockets. sockets.each {|s| p s.local_address } #=> #<Addrinfo: [::]:1296 TCP> # #<Addrinfo: 0.0.0.0:1296 TCP> # IPv6 and IPv4 socket has same port number, 53114, even if it is chosen dynamically. sockets = Socket.tcp_server_sockets(0) sockets.each {|s| p s.local_address } #=> #<Addrinfo: [::]:53114 TCP> # #<Addrinfo: 0.0.0.0:53114 TCP> # The block is called with the sockets. Socket.tcp_server_sockets(0) {|sockets| p sockets #=> [#<Socket:fd 3>, #<Socket:fd 4>] }
Creates UDP/IP sockets for a UDP server.
If no block given, it returns an array of sockets.
If a block is given, the block is called with the sockets. The value of the block is returned. The sockets are closed when this method returns.
If port is zero, some port is chosen. But the chosen port is used for the all sockets.
# UDP/IP echo server Socket.udp_server_sockets(0) {|sockets| p sockets.first.local_address.ip_port #=> 32963 Socket.udp_server_loop_on(sockets) {|msg, msg_src| msg_src.reply msg } }
creates a UNIX server socket on path
If no block given, it returns a listening socket.
If a block is given, it is called with the socket and the block value is returned. When the block exits, the socket is closed and the socket file is removed.
socket = Socket.unix_server_socket("/tmp/s") p socket #=> #<Socket:fd 3> p socket.local_address #=> #<Addrinfo: /tmp/s SOCK_STREAM> Socket.unix_server_socket("/tmp/sock") {|s| p s #=> #<Socket:fd 3> p s.local_address #=> # #<Addrinfo: /tmp/sock SOCK_STREAM> }
Packs port and host as an AF_INET/AF_INET6 sockaddr string.
Socket.sockaddr_in(80, "127.0.0.1") #=> "\x02\x00\x00P\x7F\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" Socket.sockaddr_in(80, "::1") #=> "\n\x00\x00P\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00"
Unpacks sockaddr into port and ip_address.
sockaddr should be a string or an addrinfo for AF_INET/AF_INET6.
sockaddr = Socket.sockaddr_in(80, "127.0.0.1") p sockaddr #=> "\x02\x00\x00P\x7F\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" p Socket.unpack_sockaddr_in(sockaddr) #=> [80, "127.0.0.1"]
Packs path as an AF_UNIX
sockaddr string.
Socket.sockaddr_un("/tmp/sock") #=> "\x01\x00/tmp/sock\x00\x00..."
Unpacks sockaddr into path.
sockaddr should be a string or an addrinfo for AF_UNIX
.
sockaddr = Socket.sockaddr_un("/tmp/sock") p Socket.unpack_sockaddr_un(sockaddr) #=> "/tmp/sock"
Returns true for IPv6 unique local address (fc00::/7, RFC4193). It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 multicast node-local scope address. It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 multicast link-local scope address. It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 multicast site-local scope address. It returns false otherwise.
Returns true for IPv6 multicast organization-local scope address. It returns false otherwise.
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
The block passed to this method will be called just before running the RDoc
generator. It is allowed to modify RDoc::Task
attributes inside the block.
Task
description for the rdoc task or its renamed equivalent
Task
description for the rerdoc task or its renamed description
Returns the last win32 Error
of the current executing Thread
or nil if none
Sets the last win32 Error
of the current executing Thread
to error
Starts tracing object allocations from the ObjectSpace
extension module.
For example:
require 'objspace' class C include ObjectSpace def foo trace_object_allocations do obj = Object.new p "#{allocation_sourcefile(obj)}:#{allocation_sourceline(obj)}" end end end C.new.foo #=> "objtrace.rb:8"
This example has included the ObjectSpace
module to make it easier to read, but you can also use the ::trace_object_allocations
notation (recommended).
Note that this feature introduces a huge performance decrease and huge memory consumption.
