Returns the quoting detection Proc
object.
Starts tracing object allocations.
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing the definition of the constant specified. If the named constant is not found, nil
is returned. If the constant is found, but its source location can not be extracted (constant is defined in C code), empty array is returned.
inherit specifies whether to lookup in mod.ancestors
(true
by default).
# test.rb: class A # line 1 C1 = 1 C2 = 2 end module M # line 6 C3 = 3 end class B < A # line 10 include M C4 = 4 end class A # continuation of A definition C2 = 8 # constant redefinition; warned yet allowed end p B.const_source_location('C4') # => ["test.rb", 12] p B.const_source_location('C3') # => ["test.rb", 7] p B.const_source_location('C1') # => ["test.rb", 2] p B.const_source_location('C3', false) # => nil -- don't lookup in ancestors p A.const_source_location('C2') # => ["test.rb", 16] -- actual (last) definition place p Object.const_source_location('B') # => ["test.rb", 10] -- top-level constant could be looked through Object p Object.const_source_location('A') # => ["test.rb", 1] -- class reopening is NOT considered new definition p B.const_source_location('A') # => ["test.rb", 1] -- because Object is in ancestors p M.const_source_location('A') # => ["test.rb", 1] -- Object is not ancestor, but additionally checked for modules p Object.const_source_location('A::C1') # => ["test.rb", 2] -- nesting is supported p Object.const_source_location('String') # => [] -- constant is defined in C code
Makes the set compare its elements by their identity and returns self. This method may not be supported by all subclasses of Set
.
Returns true if the set will compare its elements by their identity. Also see Set#compare_by_identity
.
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(...)
Sets self
to consider only identity in comparing keys; two keys are considered the same only if they are the same object; returns self
.
By default, these two object are considered to be the same key, so s1
will overwrite s0
:
s0 = 'x' s1 = 'x' h = {} h.compare_by_identity? # => false h[s0] = 0 h[s1] = 1 h # => {"x"=>1}
After calling #compare_by_identity, the keys are considered to be different, and therefore do not overwrite each other:
h = {} h.compare_by_identity # => {} h.compare_by_identity? # => true h[s0] = 0 h[s1] = 1 h # => {"x"=>0, "x"=>1}
Returns true
if compare_by_identity
has been called, false
otherwise.
Returns the class for the given object
.
class A def foo ObjectSpace::trace_object_allocations do obj = Object.new p "#{ObjectSpace::allocation_class_path(obj)}" end end end A.new.foo #=> "Class"
See ::trace_object_allocations
for more information and examples.
Specifies a character to be appended on completion. Nothing will be appended if an empty string (“”) or nil is specified.
For example:
require "readline" Readline.readline("> ", true) Readline.completion_append_character = " "
Result:
> Input "/var/li". > /var/li Press TAB key. > /var/lib Completes "b" and appends " ". So, you can continuously input "/usr". > /var/lib /usr
NOTE: Only one character can be specified. When “string” is specified, sets only “s” that is the first.
require "readline" Readline.completion_append_character = "string" p Readline.completion_append_character # => "s"
Raises NotImplementedError
if the using readline library does not support.
Returns a string containing a character to be appended on completion. The default is a space (“ ”).
Raises NotImplementedError
if the using readline library does not support.
When called during a completion (e.g. from within your completion_proc
), it will return a string containing the character used to quote the argument being completed, or nil if the argument is unquoted.
When called at other times, it will always return nil.
Note that Readline.completer_quote_characters
must be set, or this method will always return nil.
Verify compaction reference consistency.
This method is implementation specific. During compaction, objects that were moved are replaced with T_MOVED objects. No object should have a reference to a T_MOVED object after compaction.
This function expands the heap to ensure room to move all objects, compacts the heap to make sure everything moves, updates all references, then performs a full GC. If any object contains a reference to a T_MOVED object, that object should be pushed on the mark stack, and will make a SEGV.
Calls the block with each repeated permutation of length n
of the elements of self
; each permutation is an Array; returns self
. The order of the permutations is indeterminate.
When a block and a positive Integer argument n
are given, calls the block with each n
-tuple repeated permutation of the elements of self
. The number of permutations is self.size**n
.
n
= 1:
a = [0, 1, 2] a.repeated_permutation(1) {|permutation| p permutation }
Output:
[0] [1] [2]
n
= 2:
a.repeated_permutation(2) {|permutation| p permutation }
Output:
[0, 0] [0, 1] [0, 2] [1, 0] [1, 1] [1, 2] [2, 0] [2, 1] [2, 2]
If n
is zero, calls the block once with an empty Array.
If n
is negative, does not call the block:
a.repeated_permutation(-1) {|permutation| fail 'Cannot happen' }
Returns a new Enumerator if no block given:
a = [0, 1, 2] a.repeated_permutation(2) # => #<Enumerator: [0, 1, 2]:permutation(2)>
Using Enumerators, it’s convenient to show the permutations and counts for some values of n
:
e = a.repeated_permutation(0) e.size # => 1 e.to_a # => [[]] e = a.repeated_permutation(1) e.size # => 3 e.to_a # => [[0], [1], [2]] e = a.repeated_permutation(2) e.size # => 9 e.to_a # => [[0, 0], [0, 1], [0, 2], [1, 0], [1, 1], [1, 2], [2, 0], [2, 1], [2, 2]]
Calls the block with each repeated combination of length n
of the elements of self
; each combination is an Array; returns self
. The order of the combinations is indeterminate.
When a block and a positive Integer argument n
are given, calls the block with each n
-tuple repeated combination of the elements of self
. The number of combinations is (n+1)(n+2)/2
.
n
= 1:
a = [0, 1, 2] a.repeated_combination(1) {|combination| p combination }
Output:
[0] [1] [2]
n
= 2:
a.repeated_combination(2) {|combination| p combination }
Output:
[0, 0] [0, 1] [0, 2] [1, 1] [1, 2] [2, 2]
If n
is zero, calls the block once with an empty Array.
If n
is negative, does not call the block:
a.repeated_combination(-1) {|combination| fail 'Cannot happen' }
Returns a new Enumerator if no block given:
a = [0, 1, 2] a.repeated_combination(2) # => #<Enumerator: [0, 1, 2]:combination(2)>
Using Enumerators, it’s convenient to show the combinations and counts for some values of n
:
e = a.repeated_combination(0) e.size # => 1 e.to_a # => [[]] e = a.repeated_combination(1) e.size # => 3 e.to_a # => [[0], [1], [2]] e = a.repeated_combination(2) e.size # => 6 e.to_a # => [[0, 0], [0, 1], [0, 2], [1, 1], [1, 2], [2, 2]]
Like backtrace
, but returns each line of the execution stack as a Thread::Backtrace::Location
. Accepts the same arguments as backtrace
.
f = Fiber.new { Fiber.yield } f.resume loc = f.backtrace_locations.first loc.label #=> "yield" loc.path #=> "test.rb" loc.lineno #=> 1
Returns any backtrace associated with the exception. This method is similar to Exception#backtrace
, but the backtrace is an array of Thread::Backtrace::Location
.
This method is not affected by Exception#set_backtrace()
.
Creates module functions for the named methods. These functions may be called with the module as a receiver, and also become available as instance methods to classes that mix in the module. Module
functions are copies of the original, and so may be changed independently. The instance-method versions are made private. If used with no arguments, subsequently defined methods become module functions. String
arguments are converted to symbols. If a single argument is passed, it is returned. If no argument is passed, nil is returned. If multiple arguments are passed, the arguments are returned as an array.
module Mod def one "This is one" end module_function :one end class Cls include Mod def call_one one end end Mod.one #=> "This is one" c = Cls.new c.call_one #=> "This is one" module Mod def one "This is the new one" end end Mod.one #=> "This is one" c.call_one #=> "This is the new one"
Returns the fractional part of the day in range (Rational(0, 1)…Rational(1, 1)):
DateTime.new(2001,2,3,12).day_fraction # => (1/2)
Returns the fractional part of the second in range (Rational(0, 1)…Rational(1, 1)):
DateTime.new(2001, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.5).sec_fraction # => (1/2)
Date#second_fraction is an alias for Date#sec_fraction.
Clone internal hash.
Replaces existing options with those given by arguments
, which have the same form as the arguments to ::new
; returns self
.
Raises an exception if option processing has begun.
