Returns the name of the method.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Workbook') method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'SaveAs') puts method.name # => SaveAs
Returns true if argument is return value.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('DirectX 7 for Visual Basic Type Library', 'DirectPlayLobbyConnection') method = WIN32OLE_METHOD.new(tobj, 'GetPlayerShortName') param = method.params[0] puts "#{param.name} #{param.retval?}" # => name true
Returns name.

Returns Ruby Hash object which represents VT_RECORD variable. The keys of Hash object are member names of VT_RECORD OLE variable and the values of Hash object are values of VT_RECORD OLE variable.
If COM server in VB.NET ComServer project is the following:
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Public Class ComClass
Public Structure Book
<MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.BStr)> _
Public title As String
Public cost As Integer
End Structure
Public Function getBook() As Book
Dim book As New Book
book.title = "The Ruby Book"
book.cost = 20
Return book
End Function
End Class
then, the result of WIN32OLE_RECORD#to_h is the following:
require 'win32ole' obj = WIN32OLE.new('ComServer.ComClass') book = obj.getBook book.to_h # => {"title"=>"The Ruby Book", "cost"=>20}
Returns OLE type name.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'Application') puts tobj.name # => Application
Returns the type library name.
tlib = WIN32OLE_TYPELIB.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library') name = tlib.name # -> 'Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library'
Returns the name of variable.
tobj = WIN32OLE_TYPE.new('Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object Library', 'XlSheetType') variables = tobj.variables variables.each do |variable| puts "#{variable.name}" end The result of above script is following: xlChart xlDialogSheet xlExcel4IntlMacroSheet xlExcel4MacroSheet xlWorksheet
Resets and initializes the stream. All data in both input and output buffer are discarded.
Resets the position of the file pointer to the point created the GzipReader object. The associated IO object needs to respond to the seek method.
See Zlib::GzipReader documentation for a description.
Reads at most maxlen bytes from the gziped stream but it blocks only if gzipreader has no data immediately available. If the optional outbuf argument is present, it must reference a String, which will receive the data. It raises EOFError on end of file.
See Zlib::GzipReader documentation for a description.

Returns true if stat is readable by the effective user id of this process.
File.stat("testfile").readable? #=> true
Returns true if stat has its sticky bit set, false if it doesn’t or if the operating system doesn’t support this feature.
File.stat("testfile").sticky? #=> false
Creates a IO::Buffer from the given string’s memory. Without a block a frozen internal copy of the string is created efficiently and used as the buffer source. When a block is provided, the buffer is associated directly with the string’s internal data and updating the buffer will update the string.
Until free is invoked on the buffer, either explicitly or via the garbage collector, the source string will be locked and cannot be modified.
If the string is frozen, it will create a read-only buffer which cannot be modified.
string = 'test' buffer = IO::Buffer.for(string) buffer.external? #=> true buffer.get_string(0, 1) # => "t" string # => "best" buffer.resize(100) # in `resize': Cannot resize external buffer! (IO::Buffer::AccessError) IO::Buffer.for(string) do |buffer| buffer.set_string("T") string # => "Test" end
Short representation of the buffer. It includes the address, size and symbolic flags. This format is subject to change.
puts IO::Buffer.new(4) # uses to_s internally # #<IO::Buffer 0x000055769f41b1a0+4 INTERNAL>
If the buffer is shared, meaning it references memory that can be shared with other processes (and thus might change without being modified locally).
If the buffer is read only, meaning the buffer cannot be modified using set_value, set_string or copy and similar.
Frozen strings and read-only files create read-only buffers.
Resizes a buffer to a new_size bytes, preserving its content. Depending on the old and new size, the memory area associated with the buffer might be either extended, or rellocated at different address with content being copied.
buffer = IO::Buffer.new(4) buffer.set_string("test", 0) buffer.resize(8) # resize to 8 bytes # => # #<IO::Buffer 0x0000555f5d1a1630+8 INTERNAL> # 0x00000000 74 65 73 74 00 00 00 00 test....
External buffer (created with ::for), and locked buffer can not be resized.
If the buffer references memory, release it back to the operating system.
for a mapped buffer (e.g. from file): unmap.
for a buffer created from scratch: free memory.
for a buffer created from string: undo the association.
After the buffer is freed, no further operations can’t be performed on it.
You can resize a freed buffer to re-allocate it.
Example:
buffer = IO::Buffer.for('test') buffer.free # => #<IO::Buffer 0x0000000000000000+0 NULL> buffer.get_value(:U8, 0) # in `get_value': The buffer is not allocated! (IO::Buffer::AllocationError) buffer.get_string # in `get_string': The buffer is not allocated! (IO::Buffer::AllocationError) buffer.null? # => true
