From: "mame (Yusuke Endoh)" Date: 2012-05-03T13:23:41+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:44836] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6381][Rejected] Useful methods like included don't appear in RDoc Issue #6381 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh). Status changed from Open to Rejected Assignee set to drbrain (Eric Hodel) Eric, who is a RDoc maintainer, has already answered [ruby-core:40663] and [ruby-core:40679]. Ruby-doc admin seems to misinterpret Ruby's private as Java's. I'm sympathetic to your situation. You are between two fires. Please reopen the ticket if there is any new information. -- Yusuke Endoh ---------------------------------------- Bug #6381: Useful methods like included don't appear in RDoc https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6381#change-26411 Author: agrimm (Andrew Grimm) Status: Rejected Priority: Normal Assignee: drbrain (Eric Hodel) Category: Target version: ruby -v: ruby 1.9.1p378 (2010-01-10 revision 26273) [i386-mingw32] =begin Methods like (({Module.included})) and (({Module.private_constant})) don't appear in ruby-doc.org's documentation, because they are private methods. This can cause difficulty for new users of Ruby, for example in http://stackoverflow.com/q/10369876/38765 While there is a rationale behind not showing some private methods, because they are implementation details that should not be relied upon by users of Ruby, this isn't the case here. This issue has been discussed in ruby-core:40662 and elsewhere, but is something that needs to be put in a bug tracker. =end -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
