Returns the names of the binding’s local variables as symbols.
def foo a = 1 2.times do |n| binding.local_variables #=> [:a, :n] end end
This method is the short version of the following code:
binding.eval("local_variables")
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number of the binding object.
Returns the substring of the target string from its beginning up to the first match in self (that is, self[0]); equivalent to regexp global variable $`:
m = /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138.") # => #<MatchData "HX1138" 1:"H" 2:"X" 3:"113" 4:"8"> m[0] # => "HX1138" m.pre_match # => "T"
Related: MatchData#post_match.
Returns the group most recently added to the stack.
Contrived example:
out = ""
=> ""
q = PrettyPrint.new(out)
=> #<PrettyPrint:0x82f85c0 @output="", @maxwidth=79, @newline="\n", @genspace=#<Proc:0x82f8368@/home/vbatts/.rvm/rubies/ruby-head/lib/ruby/2.0.0/prettyprint.rb:82 (lambda)>, @output_width=0, @buffer_width=0, @buffer=[], @group_stack=[#<PrettyPrint::Group:0x82f8138 @depth=0, @breakables=[], @break=false>], @group_queue=#<PrettyPrint::GroupQueue:0x82fb7c0 @queue=[[#<PrettyPrint::Group:0x82f8138 @depth=0, @breakables=[], @break=false>]]>, @indent=0>
q.group {
q.text q.current_group.inspect
q.text q.newline
q.group(q.current_group.depth + 1) {
q.text q.current_group.inspect
q.text q.newline
q.group(q.current_group.depth + 1) {
q.text q.current_group.inspect
q.text q.newline
q.group(q.current_group.depth + 1) {
q.text q.current_group.inspect
q.text q.newline
}
}
}
}
=> 284

Takes a block and queues a new group that is indented 1 level further.
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the Ruby source filename and line number containing this method or nil if this method was not defined in Ruby (i.e. native).
Returns the status of the global “ignore deadlock” condition. The default is false, so that deadlock conditions are not ignored.
See also ::ignore_deadlock=.
Returns the new state. When set to true, the VM will not check for deadlock conditions. It is only useful to set this if your application can break a deadlock condition via some other means, such as a signal.
Thread.ignore_deadlock = true queue = Thread::Queue.new trap(:SIGUSR1){queue.push "Received signal"} # raises fatal error unless ignoring deadlock puts queue.pop
See also ::ignore_deadlock.
Returns the execution stack for the target thread—an array containing backtrace location objects.
See Thread::Backtrace::Location for more information.
This method behaves similarly to Kernel#caller_locations except it applies to a specific thread.
Returns a pretty printed object as a string.
See the PP module for more information.
Returns the current execution stack—an array containing backtrace location objects.
See Thread::Backtrace::Location for more information.
The optional start parameter determines the number of initial stack entries to omit from the top of the stack.
A second optional length parameter can be used to limit how many entries are returned from the stack.
Returns nil if start is greater than the size of current execution stack.
Optionally you can pass a range, which will return an array containing the entries within the specified range.
Returns the names of the current local variables.
fred = 1 for i in 1..10 # ... end local_variables #=> [:fred, :i]
Returns true if yield would execute a block in the current context. The iterator? form is mildly deprecated.
def try if block_given? yield else "no block" end end try #=> "no block" try { "hello" } #=> "hello" try do "hello" end #=> "hello"
With a block given returns a hash:
Each key is a return value from the block.
Each value is an array of those elements for which the block returned that key.
Examples:
g = (1..6).group_by {|i| i%3 } g # => {1=>[1, 4], 2=>[2, 5], 0=>[3, 6]} h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 0, bat: 1} g = h.group_by {|key, value| value } g # => {0=>[[:foo, 0], [:baz, 0]], 1=>[[:bar, 1], [:bat, 1]]}
With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
Calls the block with successive elements as long as the block returns a truthy value; returns an array of all elements after that point:
(1..4).drop_while{|i| i < 3 } # => [3, 4] h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} a = h.drop_while{|element| key, value = *element; value < 2 } a # => [[:baz, 2]]
With no block given, returns an Enumerator.
Returns the last Error of the current executing Thread or nil if none
Sets the last Error of the current executing Thread to error
Arguments obj and opts here are the same as arguments obj and opts in JSON.generate.
Default options are:
{
indent: ' ', # Two spaces
space: ' ', # One space
array_nl: "\n", # Newline
object_nl: "\n" # Newline
}
Example:
obj = {foo: [:bar, :baz], bat: {bam: 0, bad: 1}} json = JSON.pretty_generate(obj) puts json
Output:
{
"foo": [
"bar",
"baz"
],
"bat": {
"bam": 0,
"bad": 1
}
}
Returns true if this monitor is locked by any thread
Enters exclusive section and executes the block. Leaves the exclusive section automatically when the block exits. See example under MonitorMixin.
Returns the source file origin from the given object.
See ::trace_object_allocations for more information and examples.
Returns the original line from source for from the given object.
See ::trace_object_allocations for more information and examples.
Returns garbage collector generation for the given object.
class B include ObjectSpace def foo trace_object_allocations do obj = Object.new p "Generation is #{allocation_generation(obj)}" end end end B.new.foo #=> "Generation is 3"
See ::trace_object_allocations for more information and examples.
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.
