This document is a list of user visible feature changes made between
|
|
releases except for bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
Note that each entry is kept so brief that no reason behind or
|
|
reference information is supplied with. For a full list of changes
|
|
with all sufficient information, see the ChangeLog file.
|
|
|
|
== Changes since the 1.8.6 release
|
|
|
|
=== Configuration changes
|
|
|
|
* default C flags
|
|
|
|
Some C compiler flags may be added by default depending on your
|
|
environment. Specify optflags=.. and warnflags=.. as necessary to
|
|
override them.
|
|
|
|
* vendor_ruby directory
|
|
|
|
A new library directory named `vendor_ruby' is introduced in
|
|
addition to `site_ruby'. The idea is to separate libraries
|
|
installed by the package system (`vendor') from manually (`site')
|
|
installed libraries preventing the former from getting overwritten
|
|
by the latter, while preserving the user option to override vendor
|
|
libraries with site libraries. (`site_ruby' takes precedence over
|
|
`vendor_ruby')
|
|
|
|
If you are a package maintainer, make each library package configure
|
|
the library passing the `--vendor' option to `extconf.rb' so that
|
|
the library files will get installed under `vendor_ruby'.
|
|
|
|
You can change the directory locations using configure options such
|
|
as `--with-sitedir=DIR' and `--with-vendordir=DIR'.

=== Interpreter Implementation
|
|
|
|
* passing a block to a Proc [experimental]
|
|
|
|
This implementation in current shape is known to be buggy/broken,
|
|
especially with nested block invocation. Take this as an
|
|
experimental feature.
|
|
|
|
* stack trace
|
|
|
|
On non-SystemStackError exception, full stack trace is shown.
|
|
|
|
=== Compatibility issues (excluding feature bug fixes)
|
|
|
|
* String#slice! had some unintentional bugs and they have been fixed
|
|
because either they disagreed with documentation or their respective
|
|
behavior of #slice. Unfortunately, this causes some
|
|
incompatibilities in the following (somewhat rare) cases.
|
|
|
|
* #slice! no longer expands the array when an out-of-boundary value
|
|
is given.
|
|
|
|
# Ruby 1.8.6
|
|
a = [1,2]
|
|
a.slice!(4,0) #=> nil
|
|
a #=> [1,2,nil,nil]
|
|
|
|
# Ruby 1.8.7
|
|
a = [1,2]
|
|
a.slice!(4,0) #=> nil
|
|
a #=> [1,2]
|
|
|
|
* #slice! no longer raises an exception but returns nil when a
|
|
negative length or out-of-boundary negative position is given.
|
|
|
|
# Ruby 1.8.6
|
|
a = [1,2]
|
|
a.slice!(1,-1) #=> (raises IndexError)
|
|
a.slice!(-5,1) #=> (raises IndexError)
|
|
|
|
# Ruby 1.8.7
|
|
a = [1,2]
|
|
a.slice!(1,-1) #=> nil
|
|
a.slice!(-5,1) #=> nil
|
|
|
|
* String#to_i, String#hex and String#oct no longer accept a sequence
|
|
of underscores (`__') as part of a number.
|
|
|
|
# Ruby 1.8.6
|
|
'1__0'.to_i #=> 10
|
|
'1__0'.to_i(2) #=> 2 # 0b10
|
|
'1__0'.oct #=> 8 # 010
|
|
'1__0'.hex #=> 16 # 0x10
|
|
|
|
# Ruby 1.8.7
|
|
'1__0'.to_i #=> 1
|
|
'1__0'.to_i(2) #=> 1
|
|
'1__0'.oct #=> 1
|
|
'1__0'.hex #=> 1
|
|
|
|
The old behavior was inconsistent with Ruby syntax and considered as
|
|
a bug.
|
|
|
|
* date
|
|
|
|
* Date.parse
|
|
|
|
'##.##.##' (where each '#' is a digit) is now taken as 'YY.MM.DD'
|
|
instead of 'MM.DD.YY'. While the change may confuse you, you can
|
|
always use Date.strptime() when you know what you are dealing
|
|
with.
|
|
|
|
* stringio
|
|
|
|
* StringIO#each_byte
|
|
|
|
The return value changed from nil to self. This is what the
|
|
document says and the same as each_line() does.
|
|
|
|
* tempfile
|
|
|
|
* The file name format has changed. No dots are included by default
|
|
in temporary file names any more. See above for how to specify a
|
|
suffix.
|
|
|
|
* uri
|
|
|
|
* See above for details.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
=== Library updates (outstanding ones only)
|
|
|
|
* builtin classes
|
|
|
|
* New method: Kernel#instance_variable_defined?
|
|
|
|
* New method: Module#class_variable_defined?
|
|
|
|
* New feature: Dir::glob() can now take an array of glob patterns.
|
|
|
|
* date
|
|
|
|
* Updated based on date2 4.0.3.
|
|
|
|
* digest
|
|
|
|
* New internal APIs for C and Ruby.
|
|
|
|
* Support for autoloading.
|
|
|
|
require 'digest'
|
|
|
|
# autoloads digest/md5
|
|
md = Digest::MD5.digest("string")
|
|
|
|
* New digest class methods: file
|
|
|
|
* New digest instance methods: clone, reset, new, inspect,
|
|
digest_length (alias size or length), block_length()
|
|
|
|
* New library: digest/bubblebabble
|
|
|
|
* New function: Digest(name)
|
|
|
|
* fileutils
|
|
|
|
* New option for FileUtils.cp_r(): :remove_destination
|
|
|
|
* nkf
|
|
|
|
* Updated based on nkf as of 2007-01-28.
|
|
|
|
* thread
|
|
|
|
* Replaced with much faster mutex implementation in C. The former
|
|
implementation, which is slow but considered to be stable, is
|
|
available with a configure option `--disable-fastthread'.
|
|
|
|
* tk
|
|
|
|
* Updated Tile extension support based on Tile 0.7.8.
|
|
|
|
* Support --without-X11 configure option for non-X11 versions of
|
|
Tcl/Tk (e.g. Tcl/Tk Aqua).
|
|
|
|
* New sample script: irbtkw.rbw -- IRB on Ruby/Tk. It has no trouble
|
|
about STDIN blocking on Windows.
|
|
|
|
* webrick
|
|
|
|
* New method: WEBrick::Cookie.parse_set_cookies()
|
|
|
|
=== Compatibility issues (excluding feature bug fixes)
|
|
|
|
* builtin classes
|
|
|
|
* String#intern now raises SecurityError when $SAFE level is greater
|
|
than zero.
|
|
|
|
* date
|
|
|
|
* Time#to_date and Time#to_datetime are added as private methods.
|
|
They cause name conflict error in ActiveSupport 1.4.1 and prior,
|
|
which comes with Rails 1.2.2 and prior. Updating ActiveSupport
|
|
and/or Rails to the latest versions fixes the problem.
|
|
|
|
* digest
|
|
|
|
* The constructor does no longer take an initial string to feed.
|
|
The following examples show how to migrate:
|
|
|
|
# Before
|
|
md = Digest::MD5.new("string")
|
|
# After (works with any version)
|
|
md = Digest::MD5.new.update("string")
|
|
|
|
# Before
|
|
hd = Digest::MD5.new("string").hexdigest
|
|
# After (works with any version)
|
|
hd = Digest::MD5.hexdigest("string")
|
|
|
|
* fileutils
|
|
|
|
* A minor implementation change breaks Rake <=0.7.1.
|
|
Updating Rake to 0.7.2 or higher fixes the problem.
|
|
|
|
* tk
|
|
|
|
* Tk::X_Scrollable (Y_Scrollable) is renamed to Tk::XScrollable
|
|
(YScrollable). Tk::X_Scrollable (Y_Scrollable) is still available,
|
|
but it is an alias name.
