Issue #18183 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada). https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/8312 ---------------------------------------- Feature #18183: make SecureRandom.choose public https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18183#change-104386 * Author: olleicua (Antha Auciello) * Status: Assigned * Priority: Normal * Assignee: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) ---------------------------------------- This issue https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10849 added `SecureRandom.alphanumeric` and also the private method choose. `choose` was kept private because the method name wasn't the best name to represent the behavior. I think if it was called `random_string` it would be very clear what it does. I also think it should be aliased to choose as well to allow backwards compatibility for people bypassing the private method with `send` (e.g. https://www.thetopsites.net/article/58611103.shtml) I'm planning to put together a pull request for this. Please let me know if there are any complications I'm not considering. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ ______________________________________________ ruby-core mailing list -- ruby-core@ml.ruby-lang.org To unsubscribe send an email to ruby-core-leave@ml.ruby-lang.org ruby-core info -- https://ml.ruby-lang.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/ruby-core.ml.ruby-lang.org/
