Basically the same as ::new. However, if class Thread is subclassed, then calling start in that subclass will not invoke the subclass’s initialize method.
Stops execution of the current thread, putting it into a “sleep” state, and schedules execution of another thread.
a = Thread.new { print "a"; Thread.stop; print "c" } sleep 0.1 while a.status!='sleep' print "b" a.run a.join #=> "abc"
Returns an array of Thread objects for all threads that are either runnable or stopped.
Thread.new { sleep(200) } Thread.new { 1000000.times {|i| i*i } } Thread.new { Thread.stop } Thread.list.each {|t| p t}
This will produce:
#<Thread:0x401b3e84 sleep> #<Thread:0x401b3f38 run> #<Thread:0x401b3fb0 sleep> #<Thread:0x401bdf4c run>
Returns the status of thr.
"sleep"
Returned if this thread is sleeping or waiting on I/O
"run"
When this thread is executing
"aborting"
If this thread is aborting
false
When this thread is terminated normally
nil
If terminated with an exception.
a = Thread.new { raise("die now") } b = Thread.new { Thread.stop } c = Thread.new { Thread.exit } d = Thread.new { sleep } d.kill #=> #<Thread:0x401b3678 aborting> a.status #=> nil b.status #=> "sleep" c.status #=> false d.status #=> "aborting" Thread.current.status #=> "run"
Returns true if thr is dead or sleeping.
a = Thread.new { Thread.stop } b = Thread.current a.stop? #=> true b.stop? #=> false
Dump the name, id, and status of thr to a string.
Returns a string containing a human-readable TracePoint status.
Returns internal information of TracePoint.
The contents of the returned value are implementation-specific and may change in the future.
This method is only for debugging TracePoint itself.
Returns a new Complex object if the arguments are valid; otherwise raises an exception if exception is true; otherwise returns nil.
With Numeric arguments real and imag, returns Complex.rect(real, imag) if the arguments are valid.
With string argument s, returns a new Complex object if the argument is valid; the string may have:
One or two numeric substrings, each of which specifies a Complex, Float, Integer, Numeric, or Rational value, specifying rectangular coordinates:
Sign-separated real and imaginary numeric substrings (with trailing character 'i'):
Complex('1+2i') # => (1+2i) Complex('+1+2i') # => (1+2i) Complex('+1-2i') # => (1-2i) Complex('-1+2i') # => (-1+2i) Complex('-1-2i') # => (-1-2i)
Real-only numeric string (without trailing character 'i'):
Complex('1') # => (1+0i) Complex('+1') # => (1+0i) Complex('-1') # => (-1+0i)
Imaginary-only numeric string (with trailing character 'i'):
Complex('1i') # => (0+1i) Complex('+1i') # => (0+1i) Complex('-1i') # => (0-1i)
At-sign separated real and imaginary rational substrings, each of which specifies a Rational value, specifying polar coordinates:
Complex('1/2@3/4') # => (0.36584443443691045+0.34081938001166706i) Complex('+1/2@+3/4') # => (0.36584443443691045+0.34081938001166706i) Complex('+1/2@-3/4') # => (0.36584443443691045-0.34081938001166706i) Complex('-1/2@+3/4') # => (-0.36584443443691045-0.34081938001166706i) Complex('-1/2@-3/4') # => (-0.36584443443691045+0.34081938001166706i)
If object is string-like, parse the string and return the parsed result as a Ruby data structure. Otherwise, generate a JSON text from the Ruby data structure object and return it.
The opts argument is passed through to generate/parse respectively. See generate and parse for their documentation.
Performs a test on one or both of the filesystem entities at the given paths path0 and path1:
Each path path0 or path1 points to a file, directory, device, pipe, etc.
Character char selects a specific test.
The tests:
Each of these tests operates only on the entity at path0, and returns true or false; for a non-existent entity, returns false (does not raise exception):
| Character | Test |
|---|---|
'b' |
Whether the entity is a block device. |
'c' |
Whether the entity is a character device. |
'd' |
Whether the entity is a directory. |
'e' |
Whether the entity is an existing entity. |
'f' |
Whether the entity is an existing regular file. |
'g' |
Whether the entity's setgid bit is set. |
'G' |
Whether the entity's group ownership is equal to the caller's. |
'k' |
Whether the entity's sticky bit is set. |
'l' |
Whether the entity is a symbolic link. |
'o' |
Whether the entity is owned by the caller's effective uid. |
'O' |
Like 'o', but uses the real uid (not the effective uid). |
'p' |
Whether the entity is a FIFO device (named pipe). |
'r' |
Whether the entity is readable by the caller's effective uid/gid. |
'R' |
Like 'r', but uses the real uid/gid (not the effective uid/gid). |
'S' |
Whether the entity is a socket. |
'u' |
Whether the entity's setuid bit is set. |
'w' |
Whether the entity is writable by the caller's effective uid/gid. |
'W' |
Like 'w', but uses the real uid/gid (not the effective uid/gid). |
'x' |
Whether the entity is executable by the caller's effective uid/gid. |
'X' |
Like 'x', but uses the real uid/gid (not the effective uid/git). |
'z' |
Whether the entity exists and is of length zero. |
This test operates only on the entity at path0, and returns an integer size or nil:
| Character | Test |
|---|---|
's' |
Returns positive integer size if the entity exists and has non-zero length, nil otherwise. |
Each of these tests operates only on the entity at path0, and returns a Time object; raises an exception if the entity does not exist:
| Character | Test |
|---|---|
'A' |
Last access time for the entity. |
'C' |
Last change time for the entity. |
'M' |
Last modification time for the entity. |
Each of these tests operates on the modification time (mtime) of each of the entities at path0 and path1, and returns a true or false; returns false if either entity does not exist:
| Character | Test |
|---|---|
'<' |
Whether the 'mtime` at `path0` is less than that at `path1`. |
'=' |
Whether the 'mtime` at `path0` is equal to that at `path1`. |
'>' |
Whether the 'mtime` at `path0` is greater than that at `path1`. |
This test operates on the content of each of the entities at path0 and path1, and returns a true or false; returns false if either entity does not exist:
| Character | Test |
|---|---|
'-' |
Whether the entities exist and are identical. |
Produces a shallow copy of obj—the instance variables of obj are copied, but not the objects they reference. clone copies the frozen value state of obj, unless the :freeze keyword argument is given with a false or true value. See also the discussion under Object#dup.
class Klass attr_accessor :str end s1 = Klass.new #=> #<Klass:0x401b3a38> s1.str = "Hello" #=> "Hello" s2 = s1.clone #=> #<Klass:0x401b3998 @str="Hello"> s2.str[1,4] = "i" #=> "i" s1.inspect #=> "#<Klass:0x401b3a38 @str=\"Hi\">" s2.inspect #=> "#<Klass:0x401b3998 @str=\"Hi\">"
This method may have class-specific behavior. If so, that behavior will be documented under the #initialize_copy method of the class.
Returns a string converted from object.
Tries to convert object to a string using to_str first and to_s second:
String([0, 1, 2]) # => "[0, 1, 2]" String(0..5) # => "0..5" String({foo: 0, bar: 1}) # => "{foo: 0, bar: 1}"
Raises TypeError if object cannot be converted to a string.
Returns x/y or arg as a Rational.
Rational(2, 3) #=> (2/3) Rational(5) #=> (5/1) Rational(0.5) #=> (1/2) Rational(0.3) #=> (5404319552844595/18014398509481984) Rational("2/3") #=> (2/3) Rational("0.3") #=> (3/10) Rational("10 cents") #=> ArgumentError Rational(nil) #=> TypeError Rational(1, nil) #=> TypeError Rational("10 cents", exception: false) #=> nil
