class String:: Builder
Overview
Similar to IO::Memory
, but optimized for building a single string.
You should never have to deal with this class. Instead, use String.build
.

Instance Method Detail
Chomps the last byte from the string buffer.
If the byte is '\n'
and there's a '\r'
before it, it is also removed.
Reads at most slice.size bytes from this IO
into slice.
Returns the number of bytes read, which is 0 if and only if there is no
more data to read (so checking for 0 is the way to detect end of file).
io = IO::Memory.new "hello"
slice = Bytes.new(4)
io.read(slice) # => 4
slice # => Bytes[104, 101, 108, 108]
io.read(slice) # => 1
slice # => Bytes[111, 101, 108, 108]
io.read(slice) # => 0
Sets the encoding of this IO
.
The invalid argument can be:
nil
: an exception is raised on invalid byte sequences:skip
: invalid byte sequences are ignored
String operations (gets
, gets_to_end
, read_char
, <<
, print
, puts
printf
) will use this encoding.
Returns a nicely readable and concise string representation of this object, typically intended for users.
This method should usually not be overridden. It delegates to
#to_s(IO)
which can be overridden for custom implementations.
Also see #inspect
.
Writes the contents of slice into this IO
.
io = IO::Memory.new
slice = Bytes.new(4) { |i| ('a'.ord + i).to_u8 }
io.write(slice)
io.to_s # => "abcd"
Writes a single byte into this IO
.
io = IO::Memory.new
io.write_byte 97_u8
io.to_s # => "a"
Writes the contents of slice, interpreted as a sequence of UTF-8 or ASCII
characters, into this IO
. The contents are transcoded into this IO
's
current encoding.
bytes = "你".to_slice # => Bytes[228, 189, 160]
io = IO::Memory.new
io.set_encoding("GB2312")
io.write_string(bytes)
io.to_slice # => Bytes[196, 227]
"你".encode("GB2312") # => Bytes[196, 227]
