From: David Alan Black Date: 2001-01-04T06:49:53+09:00 Subject: [ruby-talk:8598] static rb_xxx_modify() functions Hello -- I have a question, for Matz [hi Matz!] and/or anyone who might have an insight into it, about the rb_xxx_modify() taint-checking functions in the Ruby source. Namely: what's the reason that rb_array_modify() and rb_hash_modify() are defined as static, while rb_str_modify is not? (I noticed this while working on various array and string extensions with bang methods.)
