Requests a connection to be made on the given remote_sockaddr. Returns 0 if successful, otherwise an exception is raised.
remote_sockaddr - the struct sockaddr contained in a string or Addrinfo object

On unix-based systems the following system exceptions may be raised if the call to connect fails:
Errno::EACCES - search permission is denied for a component of the prefix path or write access to the socket is denied
Errno::EADDRINUSE - the sockaddr is already in use

Errno::ECONNRESET - the remote host reset the connection request
Errno::EFAULT - the sockaddr cannot be accessed
Errno::EHOSTUNREACH - the destination host cannot be reached (probably because the host is down or a remote router cannot reach it)
Errno::EINPROGRESS - the O_NONBLOCK is set for the socket and the connection cannot be immediately established; the connection will be established asynchronously
Errno::EINTR - the attempt to establish the connection was interrupted by delivery of a signal that was caught; the connection will be established asynchronously
Errno::EISCONN - the specified socket is already connected
Errno::EINVAL - the address length used for the sockaddr is not a valid length for the address family or there is an invalid family in sockaddr

Errno::EOPNOTSUPP - the calling socket is listening and cannot be connected
Errno::EPROTOTYPE - the sockaddr has a different type than the socket bound to the specified peer address
Errno::ETIMEDOUT - the attempt to connect timed out before a connection was made.
On unix-based systems if the address family of the calling socket is AF_UNIX the follow exceptions may be raised if the call to connect fails:
Errno::EIO - an i/o error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system
Errno::ELOOP - too many symbolic links were encountered in translating the pathname in sockaddr
Errno::ENAMETOOLLONG - a component of a pathname exceeded NAME_MAX characters, or an entire pathname exceeded PATH_MAX characters
Errno::ENOENT - a component of the pathname does not name an existing file or the pathname is an empty string
Errno::ENOTDIR - a component of the path prefix of the pathname in sockaddr is not a directory
On Windows systems the following system exceptions may be raised if the call to connect fails:
Errno::ENETDOWN - the network is down
Errno::EADDRINUSE - the socket’s local address is already in use
Errno::EINTR - the socket was cancelled
Errno::EINPROGRESS - a blocking socket is in progress or the service provider is still processing a callback function. Or a nonblocking connect call is in progress on the socket.
Errno::EALREADY - see Errno::EINVAL
Errno::EADDRNOTAVAIL - the remote address is not a valid address, such as ADDR_ANY TODO check ADDRANY TO INADDR_ANY
Errno::EAFNOSUPPORT - addresses in the specified family cannot be used with with this socket

Creates a pair of sockets connected each other.
domain should be a communications domain such as: :INET, :INET6, :UNIX, etc.
socktype should be a socket type such as: :STREAM, :DGRAM, :RAW, etc.
protocol should be a protocol defined in the domain, defaults to 0 for the domain.
s1, s2 = Socket.pair(:UNIX, :STREAM, 0) s1.send "a", 0 s1.send "b", 0 s1.close p s2.recv(10) #=> "ab" p s2.recv(10) #=> "" p s2.recv(10) #=> "" s1, s2 = Socket.pair(:UNIX, :DGRAM, 0) s1.send "a", 0 s1.send "b", 0 p s2.recv(10) #=> "a" p s2.recv(10) #=> "b"

Obtains the port number for port.
If protocol_name is not given, “tcp” is assumed.
Socket.getservbyport(80) #=> "www" Socket.getservbyport(514, "tcp") #=> "shell" Socket.getservbyport(514, "udp") #=> "syslog"
creates a socket connected to the address of self.
The optional argument opts is options represented by a hash. opts may have following options:
specify the timeout in seconds.
If a block is given, it is called with the socket and the value of the block is returned. The socket is returned otherwise.
Addrinfo.tcp("www.ruby-lang.org", 80).connect {|s| s.print "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: www.ruby-lang.org\r\n\r\n" puts s.read }
returns the canonical name as a string.
nil is returned if no canonical name.
The canonical name is set by Addrinfo.getaddrinfo when AI_CANONNAME is specified.
list = Addrinfo.getaddrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", 80, :INET, :STREAM, nil, Socket::AI_CANONNAME) p list[0] #=> #<Addrinfo: 221.186.184.68:80 TCP carbon.ruby-lang.org (www.ruby-lang.org)> p list[0].canonname #=> "carbon.ruby-lang.org"
Connects udpsocket to host:port.
This makes possible to send without destination address.
u1 = UDPSocket.new u1.bind("127.0.0.1", 4913) u2 = UDPSocket.new u2.connect("127.0.0.1", 4913) u2.send "uuuu", 0 p u1.recvfrom(10) #=> ["uuuu", ["AF_INET", 33230, "localhost", "127.0.0.1"]]
Returns the path of the local address of unixsocket.
s = UNIXServer.new("/tmp/sock") p s.path #=> "/tmp/sock"
Creates a pair of sockets connected to each other.
type should be a socket type such as: :STREAM, :DGRAM, :RAW, etc.
protocol should be a protocol defined in the domain. 0 is default protocol for the domain.
s1, s2 = UNIXSocket.pair s1.send "a", 0 s1.send "b", 0 p s2.recv(10) #=> "ab"

Appends the given string to the underlying buffer string. The stream must be opened for writing. If the argument is not a string, it will be converted to a string using to_s. Returns the number of bytes written. See IO#write.
Appends the given more_string to the [stored string].
Returns self.
Does not affect the [positions] or [match values].
scanner = StringScanner.new('foo') scanner.string # => "foo" scanner.terminate scanner.concat('barbaz') # => #<StringScanner 3/9 "foo" @ "barba..."> scanner.string # => "foobarbaz" put_situation(scanner) # Situation: # pos: 3 # charpos: 3 # rest: "barbaz" # rest_size: 6
Returns a new hash with each key-value pair inverted:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} h1 = h.invert h1 # => {0=>:foo, 1=>:bar, 2=>:baz}
Overwrites any repeated new keys (see Entry Order):
h = {foo: 0, bar: 0, baz: 0} h.invert # => {0=>:baz}
Related: see Methods for Transforming Keys and Values.
Returns a copy of self with all nil-valued entries removed:
h = {foo: 0, bar: nil, baz: 2, bat: nil} h.compact # => {foo: 0, baz: 2}
Related: see Methods for Deleting.
If self contains any nil-valued entries, returns self with all nil-valued entries removed; returns nil otherwise:
h = {foo: 0, bar: nil, baz: 2, bat: nil} h.compact! h # => {foo: 0, baz: 2} h.compact! # => nil
Related: see Methods for Deleting.
Removes every environment variable; returns ENV:
ENV.replace('foo' => '0', 'bar' => '1') ENV.size # => 2 ENV.clear # => ENV ENV.size # => 0
Returns a Hash whose keys are the ENV values, and whose values are the corresponding ENV names:
ENV.replace('foo' => '0', 'bar' => '1') ENV.invert # => {"1"=>"bar", "0"=>"foo"}
For a duplicate ENV value, overwrites the hash entry:
ENV.replace('foo' => '0', 'bar' => '0') ENV.invert # => {"0"=>"foo"}
Note that the order of the ENV processing is OS-dependent, which means that the order of overwriting is also OS-dependent. See About Ordering.
Raises TypeError, because ENV is a wrapper for the process-wide environment variables and a clone is useless. Use to_h to get a copy of ENV data as a hash.
Returns the ARGV array, which contains the arguments passed to your script, one per element.
For example:
$ ruby argf.rb -v glark.txt ARGF.argv #=> ["-v", "glark.txt"]
Reads the next character from ARGF and returns it as a String. Raises an EOFError after the last character of the last file has been read.
For example:
$ echo "foo" > file $ ruby argf.rb file ARGF.readchar #=> "f" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "\n" ARGF.readchar #=> end of file reached (EOFError)
Writes each of the given objects if inplace mode.
Returns the current filename. “-” is returned when the current file is STDIN.
For example:
$ echo "foo" > foo $ echo "bar" > bar $ echo "glark" > glark $ ruby argf.rb foo bar glark ARGF.filename #=> "foo" ARGF.read(5) #=> "foo\nb" ARGF.filename #=> "bar" ARGF.skip ARGF.filename #=> "glark"
Returns a network byte ordered string form of the IP address.
