[ruby-core:86168] [Ruby trunk Bug#14461][Rejected] Public SecureRandom.alphanumeric method does not appear in rdoc generated documentation

Issue #14461 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada).

Status changed from Open to Rejected

You see wrong place.
`alphanumeric` is a method defined in [Random::Formatter].

[Random::Formatter]: http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.5.0/libdoc/securerandom/rdoc/Random/Formatter.html#method-i-alphanumeric

Bug #14461: Public SecureRandom.alphanumeric method does not appear in rdoc generated documentation

* Backport: 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN, 2.5: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
The `private def` keywords for methods above the `SecureRandom.alphanumeric` definition (method via #10849) appear to have caused rdoc generation to not output anything for the method.

See http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.5.0/libdoc/securerandom/rdoc/SecureRandom.html for evidence of it being absent from rdoc generated documentation.

Speaking with one of the ruby-doc maintainers, he was the one who suggested this was the root cause of the missing entry.
