About the Examples¶ ↑
Examples on this page assume that StringIO has been required:

Public Class Methods
Note that mode
defaults to 'r'
if string
is frozen.
Returns a new StringIO instance formed from string
and mode
; see Access Modes:
strio = StringIO.new # => #<StringIO> strio.close
The instance should be closed when no longer needed.
Related: StringIO.open
(accepts block; closes automatically).
static VALUE strio_initialize(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self) { struct StringIO *ptr = check_strio(self); if (!ptr) { DATA_PTR(self) = ptr = strio_alloc(); } rb_call_super(0, 0); return strio_init(argc, argv, ptr, self); }
Note that mode
defaults to 'r'
if string
is frozen.
Creates a new StringIO instance formed from string
and mode
; see Access Modes.
With no block, returns the new instance:
strio = StringIO.open # => #<StringIO>
With a block, calls the block with the new instance and returns the block’s value; closes the instance on block exit.
StringIO.open {|strio| p strio } # => #<StringIO>
