A base class for objects representing a C structure
Wrapper for arrays within a struct
The base exception for JSON errors.
This exception is raised if the nesting of parsed data structures is too deep.
This class is used as a return value from ObjectSpace::reachable_objects_from.
When ObjectSpace::reachable_objects_from returns an object with references to an internal object, an instance of this class is returned.
You can use the type method to check the type of the internal object.
Configuration for the openssl library.
Many system’s installation of openssl library will depend on your system configuration. See the value of OpenSSL::Config::DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE for the location of the file for your host.
General error for openssl library configuration files. Including formatting, parsing errors, etc.
Subclasses ‘BadAlias` for backwards compatibility
Socket::AncillaryData represents the ancillary data (control information) used by sendmsg and recvmsg system call. It contains socket family, control message (cmsg) level, cmsg type and cmsg data.
Subclass of Zlib::Error
When zlib returns a Z_NEED_DICT if a preset dictionary is needed at this point.
Used by Zlib::Inflate.inflate and Zlib.inflate
Note: Don’t use this class directly. This is an internal class.
Error raised when an error occurs on the underlying communication protocol.
Class responsible for converting between an object and its id.
This, the default implementation, uses an object’s local ObjectSpace __id__ as its id. This means that an object’s identification over drb remains valid only while that object instance remains alive within the server runtime.
For alternative mechanisms, see DRb::TimerIdConv in drb/timeridconv.rb and DRbNameIdConv in sample/name.rb in the full drb distribution.
Error raised by the DRb module when an attempt is made to refer to the context’s current drb server but the context does not have one. See current_server.
An exception wrapping a DRb::DRbUnknown object
Class wrapping a marshalled object whose type is unknown locally.
If an object is returned by a method invoked over drb, but the class of the object is unknown in the client namespace, or the object is a constant unknown in the client namespace, then the still-marshalled object is returned wrapped in a DRbUnknown instance.
If this object is passed as an argument to a method invoked over drb, then the wrapped object is passed instead.
The class or constant name of the object can be read from the name attribute. The marshalled object is held in the buf attribute.
Object wrapping a reference to a remote drb object.
Method calls on this object are relayed to the remote object that this object is a stub for.
Class handling the connection between a DRbObject and the server the real object lives on.
This class maintains a pool of connections, to reduce the overhead of starting and closing down connections for each method call.
This class is used internally by DRbObject. The user does not normally need to deal with it directly.
Object wrapping a reference to a remote drb object.
Method calls on this object are relayed to the remote object that this object is a stub for.
Class responsible for converting between an object and its id.
This, the default implementation, uses an object’s local ObjectSpace __id__ as its id. This means that an object’s identification over drb remains valid only while that object instance remains alive within the server runtime.
For alternative mechanisms, see DRb::TimerIdConv in drb/timeridconv.rb and DRbNameIdConv in sample/name.rb in the full drb distribution.
Gateway id conversion forms a gateway between different DRb protocols or networks.
The gateway needs to install this id conversion and create servers for each of the protocols or networks it will be a gateway between. It then needs to create a server that attaches to each of these networks. For example:
require 'drb/drb' require 'drb/unix' require 'drb/gw' DRb.install_id_conv DRb::GWIdConv.new gw = DRb::GW.new s1 = DRb::DRbServer.new 'drbunix:/path/to/gateway', gw s2 = DRb::DRbServer.new 'druby://example:10000', gw s1.thread.join s2.thread.join
Each client must register services with the gateway, for example:
DRb.start_service 'drbunix:', nil # an anonymous server gw = DRbObject.new nil, 'drbunix:/path/to/gateway' gw[:unix] = some_service DRb.thread.join
