Removes a file or directory, using File.unlink
if self
is a file, or Dir.unlink
as necessary.
This method is called when strong warning is produced by the parser. fmt
and args
is printf style.
Tokenizes the Ruby program and returns an array of strings. The filename
and lineno
arguments are mostly ignored, since the return value is just the tokenized input. By default, this method does not handle syntax errors in src
, use the raise_errors
keyword to raise a SyntaxError
for an error in src
.
p Ripper.tokenize("def m(a) nil end") # => ["def", " ", "m", "(", "a", ")", " ", "nil", " ", "end"]
Pushes back one character (passed as a parameter) such that a subsequent buffered read will return it. There is no limitation for multiple pushbacks including pushing back behind the beginning of the buffer string.
Truncates the buffer string to at most integer bytes. The stream must be opened for writing.
Sets the scan pointer to the previous position. Only one previous position is remembered, and it changes with each scanning operation.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.scan(/\w+/) # => "test" s.unscan s.scan(/../) # => "te" s.scan(/\d/) # => nil s.unscan # ScanError: unscan failed: previous match record not exist
disconnects OLE server. If this method called, then the WIN32OLE_EVENT
object does not receive the OLE server event any more. This method is trial implementation.
ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application') ev = WIN32OLE_EVENT.new(ie) ev.on_event() {...} ... ev.unadvise
Generate results and print them. (see ERB#result
)
Log an UNKNOWN
message. This will be printed no matter what the logger’s level is.

Unlinks (deletes) the file from the filesystem. One should always unlink the file after using it, as is explained in the “Explicit close” good practice section in the Tempfile
overview:
file = Tempfile.new('foo') begin # ...do something with file... ensure file.close file.unlink # deletes the temp file end
On POSIX systems it’s possible to unlink a file before closing it. This practice is explained in detail in the Tempfile
overview (section “Unlink after creation”); please refer there for more information.
However, unlink-before-close may not be supported on non-POSIX operating systems. Microsoft Windows is the most notable case: unlinking a non-closed file will result in an error, which this method will silently ignore. If you want to practice unlink-before-close whenever possible, then you should write code like this:
file = Tempfile.new('foo') file.unlink # On Windows this silently fails. begin # ... do something with file ... ensure file.close! # Closes the file handle. If the file wasn't unlinked # because #unlink failed, then this method will attempt # to do so again. end
Dissociates meth from its current receiver. The resulting UnboundMethod
can subsequently be bound to a new object of the same class (see UnboundMethod
).
Returns total count of Ractors currently running.
Ractor.count #=> 1 r = Ractor.new(name: 'example') { Ractor.yield(1) } Ractor.count #=> 2 (main + example ractor) r.take # wait for Ractor.yield(1) r.take # wait till r will finish Ractor.count #=> 1
Wakes up thr
, making it eligible for scheduling.
a = Thread.new { puts "a"; Thread.stop; puts "c" } sleep 0.1 while a.status!='sleep' puts "Got here" a.run a.join
This will produce:
a Got here c

.
Returns the count of elements, based on an argument or block criterion, if given.
With no argument and no block given, returns the number of elements:
[0, 1, 2].count # => 3 {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}.count # => 3
With argument object
given, returns the number of elements that are ==
to object
:
[0, 1, 2, 1].count(1) # => 2
With a block given, calls the block with each element and returns the number of elements for which the block returns a truthy value:
[0, 1, 2, 3].count {|element| element < 2} # => 2 {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}.count {|key, value| value < 2} # => 2
Each element in the returned enumerator is a 2-element array consisting of:
A value returned by the block.
An array (“chunk”) containing the element for which that value was returned, and all following elements for which the block returned the same value:
So that:
Each block return value that is different from its predecessor begins a new chunk.
Each block return value that is the same as its predecessor continues the same chunk.
Example:
e = (0..10).chunk {|i| (i / 3).floor } # => #<Enumerator: ...> # The enumerator elements. e.next # => [0, [0, 1, 2]] e.next # => [1, [3, 4, 5]] e.next # => [2, [6, 7, 8]] e.next # => [3, [9, 10]]
Method chunk
is especially useful for an enumerable that is already sorted. This example counts words for each initial letter in a large array of words:
# Get sorted words from a web page. url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eneko/data-repository/master/data/words.txt' words = URI::open(url).readlines # Make chunks, one for each letter. e = words.chunk {|word| word.upcase[0] } # => #<Enumerator: ...> # Display 'A' through 'F'. e.each {|c, words| p [c, words.length]; break if c == 'F' }
Output:
["A", 17096] ["B", 11070] ["C", 19901] ["D", 10896] ["E", 8736] ["F", 6860]
You can use the special symbol :_alone
to force an element into its own separate chuck:
a = [0, 0, 1, 1] e = a.chunk{|i| i.even? ? :_alone : true } e.to_a # => [[:_alone, [0]], [:_alone, [0]], [true, [1, 1]]]
For example, you can put each line that contains a URL into its own chunk:
pattern = /http/ open(filename) { |f| f.chunk { |line| line =~ pattern ? :_alone : true }.each { |key, lines| pp lines } }
You can use the special symbol :_separator
or nil
to force an element to be ignored (not included in any chunk):
a = [0, 0, -1, 1, 1] e = a.chunk{|i| i < 0 ? :_separator : true } e.to_a # => [[true, [0, 0]], [true, [1, 1]]]
Note that the separator does end the chunk:
a = [0, 0, -1, 1, -1, 1] e = a.chunk{|i| i < 0 ? :_separator : true } e.to_a # => [[true, [0, 0]], [true, [1]], [true, [1]]]
For example, the sequence of hyphens in svn log can be eliminated as follows:
sep = "-"*72 + "\n" IO.popen("svn log README") { |f| f.chunk { |line| line != sep || nil }.each { |_, lines| pp lines } } #=> ["r20018 | knu | 2008-10-29 13:20:42 +0900 (Wed, 29 Oct 2008) | 2 lines\n", # "\n", # "* README, README.ja: Update the portability section.\n", # "\n"] # ["r16725 | knu | 2008-05-31 23:34:23 +0900 (Sat, 31 May 2008) | 2 lines\n", # "\n", # "* README, README.ja: Add a note about default C flags.\n", # "\n"] # ...
Paragraphs separated by empty lines can be parsed as follows:
File.foreach("README").chunk { |line| /\A\s*\z/ !~ line || nil }.each { |_, lines| pp lines }
Returns the system information obtained by uname system call.
The return value is a hash which has 5 keys at least:
:sysname, :nodename, :release, :version, :machine
Example:
require 'etc' require 'pp' pp Etc.uname #=> {:sysname=>"Linux", # :nodename=>"boron", # :release=>"2.6.18-6-xen-686", # :version=>"#1 SMP Thu Nov 5 19:54:42 UTC 2009", # :machine=>"i686"}
Returns the hexadecimal representation of a memory pointer address addr
Example:
lib = Fiddle.dlopen('/lib64/libc-2.15.so') => #<Fiddle::Handle:0x00000001342460> lib['strcpy'].to_s(16) => "7f59de6dd240" Fiddle.dlunwrap(Fiddle.dlwrap(lib['strcpy'].to_s(16))) => "7f59de6dd240"
Decode the given gzipped string
.
This method is almost equivalent to the following code:
def gunzip(string) sio = StringIO.new(string) gz = Zlib::GzipReader.new(sio, encoding: Encoding::ASCII_8BIT) gz.read ensure gz&.close end
See also Zlib.gzip
The number of times GC
occurred.
It returns the number of times GC
occurred since the process started.
Skips the current file or directory, restarting the loop with the next entry. If the current file is a directory, that directory will not be recursively entered. Meaningful only within the block associated with Find::find
.
See the Find
module documentation for an example.

Initializes the supplemental group access list by reading the system group database and using all groups of which the given user is a member. The group with the specified gid is also added to the list. Returns the resulting Array
of the gids of all the groups in the supplementary group access list. Not available on all platforms.
Process.groups #=> [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 10, 11, 20, 26, 27] Process.initgroups( "mgranger", 30 ) #=> [30, 6, 10, 11] Process.groups #=> [30, 6, 10, 11]
