Creates hard links; returns nil.
Arguments src and dest should be interpretable as paths.
If src is the path to a file and dest does not exist, creates a hard link at dest pointing to src:
FileUtils.touch('src0.txt') File.exist?('dest0.txt') # => false FileUtils.link_entry('src0.txt', 'dest0.txt') File.file?('dest0.txt') # => true
If src is the path to a directory and dest does not exist, recursively creates hard links at dest pointing to paths in src:
FileUtils.mkdir_p(['src1/dir0', 'src1/dir1']) src_file_paths = [ 'src1/dir0/t0.txt', 'src1/dir0/t1.txt', 'src1/dir1/t2.txt', 'src1/dir1/t3.txt', ] FileUtils.touch(src_file_paths) File.directory?('dest1') # => true FileUtils.link_entry('src1', 'dest1') File.file?('dest1/dir0/t0.txt') # => true File.file?('dest1/dir0/t1.txt') # => true File.file?('dest1/dir1/t2.txt') # => true File.file?('dest1/dir1/t3.txt') # => true
Keyword arguments:
dereference_root: true - dereferences src if it is a symbolic link.
remove_destination: true - removes dest before creating links.
Raises an exception if dest is the path to an existing file or directory and keyword argument remove_destination: true is not given.

Takes a hash as its argument. The key is a symbol or an array of symbols. These symbols correspond to method names, instance variable names, or constant names (see def_delegator). The value is the accessor to which the methods will be delegated.

Open3.pipeline_start starts a list of commands as a pipeline. No pipes are created for stdin of the first command and stdout of the last command.
Open3.pipeline_start(cmd1, cmd2, ... [, opts]) {|wait_threads|

}
wait_threads = Open3.pipeline_start(cmd1, cmd2, ... [, opts])

Each cmd is a string or an array. If it is an array, the elements are passed to Process.spawn.
cmd: commandline command line string which is passed to a shell [env, commandline, opts] command line string which is passed to a shell [env, cmdname, arg1, ..., opts] command name and one or more arguments (no shell) [env, [cmdname, argv0], arg1, ..., opts] command name and arguments including argv[0] (no shell) Note that env and opts are optional, as for Process.spawn.
Example:
# Run xeyes in 10 seconds. Open3.pipeline_start("xeyes") {|ts| sleep 10 t = ts[0] Process.kill("TERM", t.pid) p t.value #=> #<Process::Status: pid 911 SIGTERM (signal 15)> } # Convert pdf to ps and send it to a printer. # Collect error message of pdftops and lpr. pdf_file = "paper.pdf" printer = "printer-name" err_r, err_w = IO.pipe Open3.pipeline_start(["pdftops", pdf_file, "-"], ["lpr", "-P#{printer}"], :err=>err_w) {|ts| err_w.close p err_r.read # error messages of pdftops and lpr. }

Adds a pre-install hook that will be passed an Gem::Installer instance when Gem::Installer#install is called. If the hook returns false then the install will be aborted.
Adds a pre-uninstall hook that will be passed an Gem::Uninstaller instance and the spec that will be uninstalled when Gem::Uninstaller#uninstall is called
Safely write a file in binary mode on all platforms.
Returns the status of the last executed child process in the current thread.
Process.wait Process.spawn("ruby", "-e", "exit 13") Process.last_status #=> #<Process::Status: pid 4825 exit 13>
If no child process has ever been executed in the current thread, this returns nil.
Process.last_status #=> nil
Enables or disables padding. By default encryption operations are padded using standard block padding and the padding is checked and removed when decrypting. If the pad parameter is zero then no padding is performed, the total amount of data encrypted or decrypted must then be a multiple of the block size or an error will occur.
See EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding for further information.
Returns an array of currently loaded engines.
Creates a new Socket::Option object for SOL_SOCKET/SO_LINGER.
onoff should be an integer or a boolean.
secs should be the number of seconds.
p Socket::Option.linger(true, 10) #=> #<Socket::Option: UNSPEC SOCKET LINGER on 10sec>
Returns the linger data in sockopt as a pair of boolean and integer.
sockopt = Socket::Option.linger(true, 10) p sockopt.linger => [true, 10]
Returns the method invoke kind.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbooks') method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'Add') puts method.invkind # => 1
