Closes self for writing; closed-read setting remains unchanged.
Raises IOError if writing is attempted.
Related: StringIO#close, StringIO#close_read.
Returns true if self is closed for writing, false otherwise.
Returns the substring that follows the matched substring from the most recent match attempt if it was successful, or nil otherwise; see [Basic Match Values]:
scanner = StringScanner.new('foobarbaz') scanner.post_match # => nil scanner.pos = 3 scanner.match?(/bar/) # => 3 scanner.post_match # => "baz" scanner.match?(/nope/) # => nil scanner.post_match # => nil
Returns the size (in bytes) of the rest of the [stored string]:
scanner = StringScanner.new('foobarbaz') scanner.rest # => "foobarbaz" scanner.rest_size # => 9 scanner.pos = 3 scanner.rest # => "barbaz" scanner.rest_size # => 6 scanner.terminate scanner.rest # => "" scanner.rest_size # => 0
Defines the constants of OLE Automation server as mod’s constants. The first argument is WIN32OLE object or type library name. If 2nd argument is omitted, the default is WIN32OLE. The first letter of Ruby’s constant variable name is upper case, so constant variable name of WIN32OLE object is capitalized. For example, the ‘xlTop’ constant of Excel is changed to ‘XlTop’ in WIN32OLE. If the first letter of constant variable is not [A-Z], then the constant is defined as CONSTANTS hash element.
module EXCEL_CONST end excel = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application') WIN32OLE.const_load(excel, EXCEL_CONST) puts EXCEL_CONST::XlTop # => -4160 puts EXCEL_CONST::CONSTANTS['_xlDialogChartSourceData'] # => 541 WIN32OLE.const_load(excel) puts WIN32OLE::XlTop # => -4160 module MSO end WIN32OLE.const_load('Microsoft Office 9.0 Object Library', MSO) puts MSO::MsoLineSingle # => 1
Evaluates a string containing Ruby source code, or the given block, within the context of the receiver (obj). In order to set the context, the variable self is set to obj while the code is executing, giving the code access to obj’s instance variables and private methods.
When instance_eval is given a block, obj is also passed in as the block’s only argument.
When instance_eval is given a String, the optional second and third parameters supply a filename and starting line number that are used when reporting compilation errors.
class KlassWithSecret def initialize @secret = 99 end private def the_secret "Ssssh! The secret is #{@secret}." end end k = KlassWithSecret.new k.instance_eval { @secret } #=> 99 k.instance_eval { the_secret } #=> "Ssssh! The secret is 99." k.instance_eval {|obj| obj == self } #=> true
Executes the given block within the context of the receiver (obj). In order to set the context, the variable self is set to obj while the code is executing, giving the code access to obj’s instance variables. Arguments are passed as block parameters.
class KlassWithSecret def initialize @secret = 99 end end k = KlassWithSecret.new k.instance_exec(5) {|x| @secret+x } #=> 104
If obj is a Hash object, returns obj.
Otherwise if obj responds to :to_hash, calls obj.to_hash and returns the result.
Returns nil if obj does not respond to :to_hash
Raises an exception unless obj.to_hash returns a Hash object.
Returns a new Hash object; each entry has:
A key provided by the block.
The value from self.
An optional hash argument can be provided to map keys to new keys. Any key not given will be mapped using the provided block, or remain the same if no block is given.
Transform keys:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} h1 = h.transform_keys {|key| key.to_s } h1 # => {"foo"=>0, "bar"=>1, "baz"=>2} h.transform_keys(foo: :bar, bar: :foo) #=> {bar: 0, foo: 1, baz: 2} h.transform_keys(foo: :hello, &:to_s) #=> {:hello=>0, "bar"=>1, "baz"=>2}
Overwrites values for duplicate keys:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} h1 = h.transform_keys {|key| :bat } h1 # => {:bat=>2}
Returns a new Enumerator if no block given:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} e = h.transform_keys # => #<Enumerator: {:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2}:transform_keys> h1 = e.each { |key| key.to_s } h1 # => {"foo"=>0, "bar"=>1, "baz"=>2}
Same as Hash#transform_keys but modifies the receiver in place instead of returning a new hash.
Returns a new Hash object; each entry has:
A key from self.
A value provided by the block.
Transform values:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} h1 = h.transform_values {|value| value * 100} h1 # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>100, :baz=>200}
Returns a new Enumerator if no block given:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} e = h.transform_values # => #<Enumerator: {:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2}:transform_values> h1 = e.each { |value| value * 100} h1 # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>100, :baz=>200}
Returns self, whose keys are unchanged, and whose values are determined by the given block.
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} h.transform_values! {|value| value * 100} # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>100, :baz=>200}
Returns a new Enumerator if no block given:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} e = h.transform_values! # => #<Enumerator: {:foo=>0, :bar=>100, :baz=>200}:transform_values!> h1 = e.each {|value| value * 100} h1 # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>100, :baz=>200}
Returns true if the ipaddr is an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address.
Returns true if the ipaddr is an IPv4-compatible IPv6 address.
Returns a new ipaddr built by converting the native IPv4 address into an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address.
Returns a new ipaddr built by converting the native IPv4 address into an IPv4-compatible IPv6 address.
Returns a string for DNS reverse lookup compatible with RFC3172.
Returns a string for DNS reverse lookup compatible with RFC1886.
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 sharing detection flag as a boolean value. It is false (nil) by default.
Sets the sharing detection flag to b.
Returns the substring of the target string from the end of the first match in self (that is, self[0]) to the end of the string; equivalent to regexp global variable $':
m = /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)/.match("THX1138: The Movie") # => #<MatchData "HX1138" 1:"H" 2:"X" 3:"113" 4:"8"> m[0] # => "HX1138" m.post_match # => ": The Movie"\
