Gem::VersionOption#get_platform_from_requirements

Extract platform given on the command line

Object#remove_instance_variable

Removes the named instance variable from obj, returning that variable’s value. String arguments are converted to symbols.

class Dummy
  attr_reader :var
  def initialize
    @var = 99
  end
  def remove
    remove_instance_variable(:@var)
  end
end
d = Dummy.new
d.var      #=> 99
d.remove   #=> 99
d.var      #=> nil

Object#respond_to_missing?

DO NOT USE THIS DIRECTLY.

Hook method to return whether the obj can respond to id method or not.

When the method name parameter is given as a string, the string is converted to a symbol.

See respond_to?, and the example of BasicObject.

Socket::ip_address_list

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>,
     ...]

WIN32OLE::ole_reference_count

Returns reference counter of Dispatch interface of WIN32OLE object. You should not use this method because this method exists only for debugging WIN32OLE.

WIN32OLE#ole_respond_to?

Returns true when OLE object has OLE method, otherwise returns false.

ie = WIN32OLE.new('InternetExplorer.Application')
ie.ole_respond_to?("gohome") => true

BasicObject#singleton_method_removed

Invoked as a callback whenever a singleton method is removed from the receiver.

module Chatty
  def Chatty.singleton_method_removed(id)
    puts "Removing #{id.id2name}"
  end
  def self.one()     end
  def two()          end
  def Chatty.three() end
  class << self
    remove_method :three
    remove_method :one
  end
end

produces:

Removing three
Removing one

Delegator#respond_to_missing?

Checks for a method provided by this the delegate object by forwarding the call through _getobj_.

Thread::report_on_exception

Returns the status of the global “report on exception” condition.

The default is true since Ruby 2.5.

All threads created when this flag is true will report a message on $stderr if an exception kills the thread.

Thread.new { 1.times { raise } }

will produce this output on $stderr:

#<Thread:...> terminated with exception (report_on_exception is true):
Traceback (most recent call last):
        2: from -e:1:in `block in <main>'
        1: from -e:1:in `times'

This is done to catch errors in threads early. In some cases, you might not want this output. There are multiple ways to avoid the extra output:

If the exception is not intended, the best is to fix the cause of the exception so it does not happen anymore.
If the exception is intended, it might be better to rescue it closer to where it is raised rather then let it kill the Thread.
If it is guaranteed the Thread will be joined with Thread#join or Thread#value, then it is safe to disable this report with Thread.current.report_on_exception = false when starting the Thread. However, this might handle the exception much later, or not at all if the Thread is never joined due to the parent thread being blocked, etc.

Thread::report_on_exception=

Returns the new state. When set to true, all threads created afterwards will inherit the condition and report a message on $stderr if an exception kills a thread:

Thread.report_on_exception = true
t1 = Thread.new do
  puts  "In new thread"
  raise "Exception from thread"
end
sleep(1)
puts "In the main thread"

This will produce:

In new thread
#<Thread:...prog.rb:2> terminated with exception (report_on_exception is true):
Traceback (most recent call last):
prog.rb:4:in `block in <main>': Exception from thread (RuntimeError)
In the main thread

Thread#report_on_exception

Returns the status of the thread-local “report on exception” condition for this thr.

The default value when creating a Thread is the value of the global flag Thread.report_on_exception.

Thread#report_on_exception=

When set to true, a message is printed on $stderr if an exception kills this thr. See ::report_on_exception for details.

Fiddle::win32_last_error

Returns the last win32 Error of the current executing Thread or nil if none

Fiddle::win32_last_error=

Sets the last win32 Error of the current executing Thread to error

GC::verify_compaction_references

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.

GC::measure_total_time=

Enable to measure GC time. You can get the result with GC.stat(:time). Note that GC time measurement can cause some performance overhead.

GC::measure_total_time

Return measure_total_time flag (default: true). Note that measurement can affect the application performance.

FileUtils#remove_entry_secure

Securely removes the entry given by path, which should be the entry for a regular file, a symbolic link, or a directory.

Argument path should be interpretable as a path.

Avoids a local vulnerability that can exist in certain circumstances; see Avoiding the TOCTTOU Vulnerability.

Optional argument force specifies whether to ignore raised exceptions of StandardError and its descendants.
