Returns the Encoding of the internal string if conversion is specified. Otherwise 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.
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>
Returns the internal encoding for strings read from ARGF as an Encoding object.
If ARGF.set_encoding has been called with two encoding names, the second is returned. Otherwise, if Encoding.default_external has been set, that value is returned. Failing that, if a default external encoding was specified on the command-line, that value is used. If the encoding is unknown, nil is returned.
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 methods available to this delegate object as the union of this object’s and _getobj_ protected methods.
Creates an enumerator for each chunked elements. The beginnings of chunks are defined by the block.
This method splits each chunk using adjacent elements, elt_before and elt_after, in the receiver enumerator. This method split chunks between elt_before and elt_after where the block returns false.
The block is called the length of the receiver enumerator minus one.
The result enumerator yields the chunked elements as an array. So each method can be called as follows:
enum.chunk_while { |elt_before, elt_after| bool }.each { |ary| ... }
Other methods of the Enumerator class and Enumerable module, such as to_a, map, etc., are also usable.
For example, one-by-one increasing subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [1,2,4,9,10,11,12,15,16,19,20,21] b = a.chunk_while {|i, j| i+1 == j } p b.to_a #=> [[1, 2], [4], [9, 10, 11, 12], [15, 16], [19, 20, 21]] c = b.map {|a| a.length < 3 ? a : "#{a.first}-#{a.last}" } p c #=> [[1, 2], [4], "9-12", [15, 16], "19-21"] d = c.join(",") p d #=> "1,2,4,9-12,15,16,19-21"
Increasing (non-decreasing) subsequence can be chunked as follows:
a = [0, 9, 2, 2, 3, 2, 7, 5, 9, 5] p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i <= j }.to_a #=> [[0, 9], [2, 2, 3], [2, 7], [5, 9], [5]]
Adjacent evens and odds can be chunked as follows: (Enumerable#chunk is another way to do it.)
a = [7, 5, 9, 2, 0, 7, 9, 4, 2, 0] p a.chunk_while {|i, j| i.even? == j.even? }.to_a #=> [[7, 5, 9], [2, 0], [7, 9], [4, 2, 0]]
Enumerable#slice_when does the same, except splitting when the block returns true instead of false.
Enters exclusive section.
Leaves exclusive section.
Returns true if this monitor is locked by any thread
Returns true if this monitor is locked by current thread.
Counts nodes for each node type.
This method is only for MRI developers interested in performance and memory usage of Ruby programs.
It returns a hash as:
{:NODE_METHOD=>2027, :NODE_FBODY=>1927, :NODE_CFUNC=>1798, ...}
If the optional argument, result_hash, is given, it is overwritten and returned. This is intended to avoid probe effect.
Note: The contents of the returned hash is implementation defined. It may be changed in future.
This method is only expected to work with C Ruby.

The path to standard location of the user’s .gemrc file.
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.
Tests for the presence of an --enable-config or --disable-config option. Returns true if the enable option is given, false if the disable option is given, and the default value otherwise.
This can be useful for adding custom definitions, such as debug information.
Example:
if enable_config("debug") $defs.push("-DOSSL_DEBUG") unless $defs.include? "-DOSSL_DEBUG" end
Removes session from the session cache.
