Results for: "String# "

Returns the Encoding object that represents the encoding of the stream, or nil if the stream is in write mode and no encoding is specified.

See Encodings.

See Encodings.

Argument ext_enc, if given, must be an Encoding object; it is assigned as the encoding for the stream.

Argument int_enc, if given, must be an Encoding object; it is assigned as the encoding for the internal string.

Argument 'ext_enc:int_enc', if given, is a string containing two colon-separated encoding names; corresponding Encoding objects are assigned as the external and internal encodings for the stream.

Optional keyword arguments enc_opts specify Encoding options.

Returns false if self is applicable to a string with any ASCII-compatible encoding; otherwise returns true:

r = /a/                                          # => /a/
r.fixed_encoding?                               # => false
r.match?("\u{6666} a")                          # => true
r.match?("\xa1\xa2 a".force_encoding("euc-jp")) # => true
r.match?("abc".force_encoding("euc-jp"))        # => true

r = /a/u                                        # => /a/
r.fixed_encoding?                               # => true
r.match?("\u{6666} a")                          # => true
r.match?("\xa1\xa2".force_encoding("euc-jp"))   # Raises exception.
r.match?("abc".force_encoding("euc-jp"))        # => true

r = /\u{6666}/                                  # => /\u{6666}/
r.fixed_encoding?                               # => true
r.encoding                                      # => #<Encoding:UTF-8>
r.match?("\u{6666} a")                          # => true
r.match?("\xa1\xa2".force_encoding("euc-jp"))   # Raises exception.
r.match?("abc".force_encoding("euc-jp"))        # => false

Returns a hash of the name/value pairs for the given member names.

Customer = Struct.new(:name, :address, :zip)
joe = Customer.new("Joe Smith", "123 Maple, Anytown NC", 12345)
h = joe.deconstruct_keys([:zip, :address])
h # => {:zip=>12345, :address=>"123 Maple, Anytown NC"}

Returns all names and values if array_of_names is nil:

h = joe.deconstruct_keys(nil)
h # => {:name=>"Joseph Smith, Jr.", :address=>"123 Maple, Anytown NC", :zip=>12345}

creates an Addrinfo object from the arguments.

The arguments are interpreted as similar to self.

Addrinfo.tcp("0.0.0.0", 4649).family_addrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", 80)
#=> #<Addrinfo: 221.186.184.68:80 TCP (www.ruby-lang.org:80)>

Addrinfo.unix("/tmp/sock").family_addrinfo("/tmp/sock2")
#=> #<Addrinfo: /tmp/sock2 SOCK_STREAM>

Returns the Encoding object that represents the encoding of the file. If the stream is write mode and no encoding is specified, returns nil.

Specify the encoding of the StringIO as ext_enc. Use the default external encoding if ext_enc is nil. 2nd argument int_enc and optional hash opt argument are ignored; they are for API compatibility to IO.

Calls WIN32OLE#invoke method.

Evaluates a string containing Ruby source code, or the given block, within the context of the receiver (obj). In order to set the context, the variable self is set to obj while the code is executing, giving the code access to obj’s instance variables and private methods.

When instance_eval is given a block, obj is also passed in as the block’s only argument.

When instance_eval is given a String, the optional second and third parameters supply a filename and starting line number that are used when reporting compilation errors.

class KlassWithSecret
  def initialize
    @secret = 99
  end
  private
  def the_secret
    "Ssssh! The secret is #{@secret}."
  end
end
k = KlassWithSecret.new
k.instance_eval { @secret }          #=> 99
k.instance_eval { the_secret }       #=> "Ssssh! The secret is 99."
k.instance_eval {|obj| obj == self } #=> true

Executes the given block within the context of the receiver (obj). In order to set the context, the variable self is set to obj while the code is executing, giving the code access to obj’s instance variables. Arguments are passed as block parameters.

class KlassWithSecret
  def initialize
    @secret = 99
  end
end
k = KlassWithSecret.new
k.instance_exec(5) {|x| @secret+x }   #=> 104

Invoked by Ruby when obj is sent a message it cannot handle. symbol is the symbol for the method called, and args are any arguments that were passed to it. By default, the interpreter raises an error when this method is called. However, it is possible to override the method to provide more dynamic behavior. If it is decided that a particular method should not be handled, then super should be called, so that ancestors can pick up the missing method. The example below creates a class Roman, which responds to methods with names consisting of roman numerals, returning the corresponding integer values.

class Roman
  def roman_to_int(str)
    # ...
  end

  def method_missing(symbol, *args)
    str = symbol.id2name
    begin
      roman_to_int(str)
    rescue
      super(symbol, *args)
    end
  end
end

r = Roman.new
r.iv      #=> 4
r.xxiii   #=> 23
r.mm      #=> 2000
r.foo     #=> NoMethodError

Returns the external encoding for files read from ARGF as an Encoding object. The external encoding is the encoding of the text as stored in a file. Contrast with ARGF.internal_encoding, which is the encoding used to represent this text within Ruby.

To set the external encoding use ARGF.set_encoding.

For example:

ARGF.external_encoding  #=>  #<Encoding:UTF-8>

If single argument is specified, strings read from ARGF are tagged with the encoding specified.

If two encoding names separated by a colon are given, e.g. “ascii:utf-8”, the read string is converted from the first encoding (external encoding) to the second encoding (internal encoding), then tagged with the second encoding.

If two arguments are specified, they must be encoding objects or encoding names. Again, the first specifies the external encoding; the second specifies the internal encoding.

If the external encoding and the internal encoding are specified, the optional Hash argument can be used to adjust the conversion process. The structure of this hash is explained in the String#encode documentation.

For example:

ARGF.set_encoding('ascii')         # Tag the input as US-ASCII text
ARGF.set_encoding(Encoding::UTF_8) # Tag the input as UTF-8 text
ARGF.set_encoding('utf-8','ascii') # Transcode the input from US-ASCII
                                   # to UTF-8.

Returns the value that determines whether illegal input is to be handled; used for parsing; see {Option liberal_parsing}:

CSV.new('').liberal_parsing? # => false

Returns the encoding of the internal IO object.

Returns a hash of the name/value pairs, to use in pattern matching.

Measure = Data.define(:amount, :unit)

distance = Measure[10, 'km']
distance.deconstruct_keys(nil) #=> {:amount=>10, :unit=>"km"}
distance.deconstruct_keys([:amount]) #=> {:amount=>10}

# usage
case distance
in amount:, unit: 'km' # calls #deconstruct_keys underneath
  puts "It is #{amount} kilometers away"
else
  puts "Don't know how to handle it"
end
# prints "It is 10 kilometers away"

Or, with checking the class, too:

case distance
in Measure(amount:, unit: 'km')
  puts "It is #{amount} kilometers away"
# ...
end

Returns a hash of the named captures for the given names.

m = /(?<hours>\d{2}):(?<minutes>\d{2}):(?<seconds>\d{2})/.match("18:37:22")
m.deconstruct_keys([:hours, :minutes]) # => {:hours => "18", :minutes => "37"}
m.deconstruct_keys(nil) # => {:hours => "18", :minutes => "37", :seconds => "22"}

Returns an empty hash of no named captures were defined:

m = /(\d{2}):(\d{2}):(\d{2})/.match("18:37:22")
m.deconstruct_keys(nil) # => {}

Raises PStore::Error if the calling code is not in a PStore#transaction.

Returns the original name of the method.

class C
  def foo; end
  alias bar foo
end
C.instance_method(:bar).original_name # => :foo

Returns the original name of the method.

class C
  def foo; end
  alias bar foo
end
C.instance_method(:bar).original_name # => :foo

Closes the outgoing port and returns its previous state. All further attempts to Ractor.yield in the ractor, and take from the ractor will fail with Ractor::ClosedError.

r = Ractor.new {sleep(500)}
r.close_outgoing  #=> false
r.close_outgoing  #=> true
r.take
# Ractor::ClosedError (The outgoing-port is already closed)

Returns the index of the first element that meets a specified criterion, or nil if no such element is found.

With argument object given, returns the index of the first element that is == object:

['a', 'b', 'c', 'b'].find_index('b') # => 1

With a block given, calls the block with successive elements; returns the first element for which the block returns a truthy value:

['a', 'b', 'c', 'b'].find_index {|element| element.start_with?('b') } # => 1
{foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2}.find_index {|key, value| value > 1 }         # => 2

With no argument and no block given, returns an Enumerator.
