[ruby-core:88998] [Ruby trunk Feature#15112] Introdudce the new singleton method STDERR.p

Issue #15112 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler).


I agree with both what Kenta Murata and what Jeremy Evans wrote (to explain,
I have no personal preference; I think both .p() would be useful anyway and
I think this was the spirit of the original suggestion; I love p and pp).

Martin suggested warn_p so I think this addresses more Kenta Murata, but I
think, personally, the net benefit of warn_p may be significantly smaller
than the "puts" versus "p" situation, where I think the gain is quite
significant here, if you write a lot of p. (This is a bit similar to the
proposal to do "require 'pp'" by default, which was a good change IMO).

Anyway, my personal opinion is +1 to the idea behind the proposal - I have
no real preference on it being on STDERR or $stderr or both; I think it may
be useful no matter where the method resides.

Feature #15112: Introdudce the new singleton method STDERR.p

* Author: mrkn (Kenta Murata)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto)
* Target version: 
----------------------------------------
I sometimes write `STDERR.puts obj.inspect` to print debug message to standard error.
I want to write it as `STDERR.p obj`.
It can be realized by introducing `p` singleton method in `STDERR` object.
