From: shevegen@... Date: 2017-11-08T18:47:32+00:00 Subject: [ruby-core:83701] [Ruby trunk Feature#14092] Add extension key argument to Tempfile Issue #14092 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler). It may be best to just publish your suggestion anyway. I may be wrong but the ruby core team and matz appear to be quite busy currently - see the queue of other suggestions. Perhaps they will do some "batch-discussions" of many features/changes in meetings in japan with matz which seem to happen once per month at best. ---------------------------------------- Feature #14092: Add extension key argument to Tempfile https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14092#change-67726 * Author: TheSmartnik (Nikita Misharin) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- I don't work with Tempfile often, but every time I do, I get surprised by an obscure way to pass an extension to file name. You have to pass array, where first element is a file name and a second is a file extension *(starting with a dot)*, which is quite a unique *(not in a good way)* and unusual interface for ruby. I think a much better interface would be to use a separate key word for this. I've researched the code and it seems we can achieve that without changing much code. I can make pr, if you think the idea is worthy -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
