Listens for connections, using the specified int as the backlog. A call to listen only applies if the socket is of type SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_SEQPACKET.
backlog - the maximum length of the queue for pending connections.
require 'socket' include Socket::Constants socket = Socket.new( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 ) sockaddr = Socket.pack_sockaddr_in( 2200, 'localhost' ) socket.bind( sockaddr ) socket.listen( 5 )
require 'socket' include Socket::Constants socket = Socket.new( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0 ) socket.listen( 1 )
On unix based systems the above will work because a new sockaddr struct is created on the address ADDR_ANY, for an arbitrary port number as handed off by the kernel. It will not work on Windows, because Windows requires that the socket is bound by calling bind before it can listen.
If the backlog amount exceeds the implementation-dependent maximum queue length, the implementation’s maximum queue length will be used.
On unix-based based systems the following system exceptions may be raised if the call to listen fails:
Errno::EBADF - the socket argument is not a valid file descriptor
Errno::EDESTADDRREQ - the socket is not bound to a local address, and the protocol does not support listening on an unbound socket
Errno::EINVAL - the socket is already connected
Errno::ENOTSOCK - the socket argument does not refer to a socket
Errno::EOPNOTSUPP - the socket protocol does not support listen
Errno::EACCES - the calling process does not have appropriate privileges
Errno::EINVAL - the socket has been shut down
Errno::ENOBUFS - insufficient resources are available in the system to complete the call
On Windows systems the following system exceptions may be raised if the call to listen fails:
Errno::ENETDOWN - the network is down
Errno::EADDRINUSE - the socket’s local address is already in use. This usually occurs during the execution of bind but could be delayed if the call to bind was to a partially wildcard address (involving ADDR_ANY) and if a specific address needs to be committed at the time of the call to listen
Errno::EINPROGRESS - a Windows Sockets 1.1 call is in progress or the service provider is still processing a callback function
Errno::EINVAL - the socket has not been bound with a call to bind.
Errno::EISCONN - the socket is already connected
Errno::EMFILE - no more socket descriptors are available
Errno::ENOBUFS - no buffer space is available
Errno::ENOTSOC - socket is not a socket
Errno::EOPNOTSUPP - the referenced socket is not a type that supports the listen method

Returns the hostname.

Note that it is not guaranteed to be able to convert to IP address using gethostbyname, getaddrinfo, etc. If you need local IP address, use Socket.ip_address_list.
Use Addrinfo.getaddrinfo instead. This method is deprecated for the following reasons:
The 3rd element of the result is the address family of the first address. The address families of the rest of the addresses are not returned.
Uncommon address representation: 4/16-bytes binary string to represent IPv4/IPv6 address.
gethostbyname() may take a long time and it may block other threads. (GVL cannot be released since gethostbyname() is not thread safe.)
This method uses gethostbyname() function already removed from POSIX.
This method obtains the host information for hostname.

Returns underlying string:
StringIO.open('foo') do |strio| p strio.string strio.string = 'bar' p strio.string end
Output:
"foo" "bar"
Related: StringIO#string= (assigns the underlying string).
Assigns the underlying string as other_string, and sets position to zero; returns other_string:
StringIO.open('foo') do |strio| p strio.string strio.string = 'bar' p strio.string end
Output:
"foo" "bar"
Related: StringIO#string (returns the underlying string).
Returns the [stored string]:
scanner = StringScanner.new('foobar') scanner.string # => "foobar" scanner.concat('baz') scanner.string # => "foobarbaz"
Replaces the [stored string] with the given other_string:
Sets both [positions] to zero.
Clears [match values].
Returns other_string.
scanner = StringScanner.new('foobar') scanner.scan(/foo/) put_situation(scanner) # Situation: # pos: 3 # charpos: 3 # rest: "bar" # rest_size: 3 match_values_cleared?(scanner) # => false scanner.string = 'baz' # => "baz" put_situation(scanner) # Situation: # pos: 0 # charpos: 0 # rest: "baz" # rest_size: 3 match_values_cleared?(scanner) # => true
Attempts to [match] the given pattern anywhere (at any [position]) n the [target substring]; does not modify the [positions].
If the match succeeds:
Returns a byte offset: the distance in bytes between the current [position] and the end of the matched substring.
Sets all [match values].
scanner = StringScanner.new('foobarbazbatbam') scanner.pos = 6 scanner.exist?(/bat/) # => 6 put_match_values(scanner) # Basic match values: # matched?: true # matched_size: 3 # pre_match: "foobarbaz" # matched : "bat" # post_match: "bam" # Captured match values: # size: 1 # captures: [] # named_captures: {} # values_at: ["bat", nil] # []: # [0]: "bat" # [1]: nil put_situation(scanner) # Situation: # pos: 6 # charpos: 6 # rest: "bazbatbam" # rest_size: 9
If the match fails:
Returns nil.
Clears all [match values].
scanner.exist?(/nope/) # => nil match_values_cleared?(scanner) # => true
Sets the [position] to its value previous to the recent successful [match] attempt:
scanner = StringScanner.new('foobarbaz') scanner.scan(/foo/) put_situation(scanner) # Situation: # pos: 3 # charpos: 3 # rest: "barbaz" # rest_size: 6 scanner.unscan # => #<StringScanner 0/9 @ "fooba..."> put_situation(scanner) # Situation: # pos: 0 # charpos: 0 # rest: "foobarbaz" # rest_size: 9
Raises an exception if match values are clear:
scanner.scan(/nope/) # => nil match_values_cleared?(scanner) # => true scanner.unscan # Raises StringScanner::Error.
Returns a string representation of self that may show:
The current [position].
The size (in bytes) of the [stored string].
The substring preceding the current position.
The substring following the current position (which is also the [target substring]).
