Oops ... sorry, copied the wrong example. Here is the correct one:


C:\>irb -r stringio
irb(main):001:0> sio = Marshal.dump('foobar',StringIO.new)
=> #<StringIO:0x27c7a10>
irb(main):002:0> p sio
#<StringIO:0x27c7a10>
=> nil
irb(main):003:0> sio.rewind
=> 0
irb(main):004:0> puts Marshal.load(sio)
foobar
=> nil
irb(main):005:0> quit
