Description
The next dev meeting¶
Date: 2021/10/21 13:00-17:00 +09:00
Place/Sign-up/Agenda/Log: https://github.com/ruby/dev-meeting-log/blob/master/DevelopersMeeting20211021Japan.md
- Dev meeting IS NOT a decision-making place. All decisions should be done at the bug tracker.
- Dev meeting is a place we can ask Matz, nobu, nurse and other developers directly.
- Matz is a very busy person. Take this opportunity to ask him. If you can not attend, other attendees can ask instead of you (if attendees can understand your issue).
- We will write a log about the discussion to a file or to each ticket in English.
- All activities are best-effort (keep in mind that most of us are volunteer developers).
- The date, time and place are scheduled according to when/where we can reserve Matz's time.
- DO NOT discuss then on this ticket, please.
Call for agenda items¶
If you have a ticket that you want matz and committers to discuss, please post it into this ticket in the following format:
* [Ticket ref] Ticket title (your name)
* Comment (A summary of the ticket, why you put this ticket here, what point should be discussed, etc.)
Example:
* [Feature #14609] `Kernel#p` without args shows the receiver (ko1)
* I feel this feature is very useful and some people say :+1: so let discuss this feature.
- It is recommended to add a comment by 2021/10/18. We hold a preparatory meeting to create an agenda a few days before the dev-meeting.
- The format is strict. We'll use this script to automatically create an markdown-style agenda. We may ignore a comment that does not follow the format.
- Your comment is mandatory. We cannot read all discussion of the ticket in a limited time. We appreciate it if you could write a short summary and update from a previous discussion.

- Can we agree on interface and implementation.
-
Process::Status
is example use-case. Should be many more.
- [Feature #18083] Capture error in ensure block.
- Can we deprecate
$!
(&$@
)? It's dangerous and every use case is better with explicit capture. Also may have some performance advantages.
- Can we deprecate
- [Feature #18020] Introduce
IO::Buffer
for fiber scheduler.- For efficient file IO we need an internal buffer with well defined semantics suitable for IO.
- [Feature #17369] Introduce non-blocking
Process.wait
,Kernel.system
and related methods.- Currently,
$?
is thread-local, but it should be fiber local. - Should we try to fix

or deprecate it? - Introduce new interface?
system(...) {|status| ...}
?

- [Misc #18248] Add Feature Triaging Guide (jeremyevans0)
- Is it OK to add a feature triaging guide and start using it triage feature requests?
- [Bug #18066] Load did_you_mean/error_highlight even with --disable-gems (jeremyevans0)
- Should --disable-gems also disable did_you_mean and error_highlight?
- Most developers appear in favor, though @mame (Yusuke Endoh) is against (but not strongly opposed).
- [Bug #18187]
Float#clamp()
returnsArgumentError
(comparison of Float with 1 failed) (jeremyevans0)- How should
Float#clamp
handle case where receiver is NaN? - Currently it raises
ArgumentError
, but that is due to implementation details, not by design. - Is it OK to change it to return the receiver (NaN) in this case?
- How should
- [Bug #12436] newline argument of
File.open
seems not respected on Windows (jeremyevans0)- The option is currently ignored due to an oversight when the code was originally added.
- Is it OK to introduce
lf_newline
transcoder andnewline: :lf
option to fix this? - Also, is
newline: :crlf
supposed to convert\r\n
to\n
during read only on Windows?

- [Feature #10917] Add
GC.stat[:total_time]
when GC profiling enabled- @ko1 (Koichi Sasada) did submit a pull request which seem fine except maybe for 32bits support.
- @ko1 (Koichi Sasada) did also measure the overhead and it appeared small.
- Could this feature be merged for Ruby 3.1?
Updated by byroot (Jean Boussier) about 3 years ago
- [Feature #17760] Where we should install a header file when
gem install --user
?-
digest
have been gemified. However itsextconf.rb
have$INSTALLFILES = { "digest.h" => "$(HDRDIR)" }
which fail for most people because ruby'sinclude
directory is owned by root. - What should rubygems do here? Have a secondary user owned
include
directory? - If I have several versions of
digest
installed? How gems linking against it would know which version to use? - If there's no clear solution, with 3.1.0 approaching, should we revert that
digest
gemification so that 3.1.0 is actually usable?

- [Feature #18256] Change the canonical name of Thread::Mutex, Thread::Queue, Thread::SizedQueue and Thread::ConditionVariable to just Mutex, Queue, SizedQueue and ConditionVariable (eregon)
- OK? (sorry for late addition for the meeting, we can move to next meeting if needed, but would be best to decide sooner than later)
Updated by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme) about 3 years ago
- [Feature #17795] Around
Process.fork
callbacks API (dan0042)- A few naming suggestions have been made; does Matz like any of them?
- [Feature #17837] Add support for Regexp timeouts (dan0042)
- Adding this to ruby 3.1 with a safe (high) value for
Regexp.backtrack_limit
would be an improvement on the current lack of limit, and would allow to get measurements from real-world applications for a better default value.
- Adding this to ruby 3.1 with a safe (high) value for
Updated by byroot (Jean Boussier) about 3 years ago
- [Feature #18254] Add an
offset
parameter toString#unpack
andString#unpack1
- Binary protocol parsers currently have to slice their buffer repeatedly, this new argument would save a lot of string copying.
Updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze) about 3 years ago
- [Bug #17146] Queue operations are allowed after it is frozen. (eregon)
- This is an obvious inconsistency and it makes no sense whenever we discuss deep freezing object graphs. Let's fix it.
