From: "nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) via ruby-core" Date: 2024-09-05T08:30:13+00:00 Subject: [ruby-core:119059] [Ruby master Feature#20703] Alias StringIO#string to StringIO#to_s/to_str Issue #20703 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada). Status changed from Open to Rejected At this developers' meeting, no one was favor of this. IMO, `StringIO` is not a `String`-like object. ---------------------------------------- Feature #20703: Alias StringIO#string to StringIO#to_s/to_str https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20703#change-109637 * Author: sebyx07 (Sebastian Buza) * Status: Rejected ---------------------------------------- # Description Allow to use `StringIO.new('my string').to_s` to be the same as `StringIO.new('my string').string` IMO nobody really uses the current StringIO#to_s, so I don't think it will break other apps. * Also added .to_str That way you can also do interpolation easily ```ruby my_sio = StringIO.new('my string') # current puts "value: #{my_sio}" # value: # # after puts "value: #{my_sio}" # value: my string ``` - issue: https://github.com/ruby/stringio/issues/102 - pr: https://github.com/ruby/stringio/pull/103 -- 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/lists/ruby-core.ml.ruby-lang.org/
