Makes existing class methods private. Often used to hide the default constructor new.
String arguments are converted to symbols. An Array of Symbols and/or Strings is also accepted.
class SimpleSingleton # Not thread safe private_class_method :new def SimpleSingleton.create(*args, &block) @me = new(*args, &block) if ! @me @me end end

Returns a string representation of lex_state.
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"]
Returns local IP addresses as an array.
The array contains Addrinfo objects.
pp Socket.ip_address_list
#=> [#<Addrinfo: 127.0.0.1>,
#<Addrinfo: 192.168.0.128>,
#<Addrinfo: ::1>,
...]
Returns true for IPv6 multicast link-local scope address. It returns false otherwise.
Initialize WIN32OLE object(ActiveX Control) by calling IPersistMemory::InitNew.
Before calling OLE method, some kind of the ActiveX controls created with MFC should be initialized by calling IPersistXXX::InitNew.
If and only if you received the exception “HRESULT error code: 0x8000ffff catastrophic failure”, try this method before invoking any ole_method.
obj = WIN32OLE.new("ProgID_or_GUID_of_ActiveX_Control")
obj.ole_activex_initialize
obj.method(...)
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 IO instance tied to ARGF for writing if inplace mode is enabled.
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.
Creates an option from the given parameters params. See Parameters for New Options.
The block, if given, is the handler for the created option. When the option is encountered during command-line parsing, the block is called with the argument given for the option, if any. See Option Handlers.
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.
