Feature #3023: RDoc urls

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: drbrain (Eric Hodel)
• Target version: 1.9.2

[marcandre (Marc-Andre Lafortune)]

=begin
Currently, rdoc generates url for methods that look like:

.../classes/Enumerable.html#M002713

This has two drawbacks.

1. This URL is subject to change when methods are added/removed. This makes it impossible to reference the documentation of a method.

2. There is no way to know what method this refers to just by looking at it.

If instead the url looked like:

.../classes/Enumerable.html#map-instance_method

then it would be human readable and RESTful.

The method name simply need to be URI encoded and suffixed with either instance_method, class_method, or -constant.

Hi,

This ticket is accepted by Eric Hodel, so I set the target to 1.9.2.

It will be deferred to 1.9.x if the commit is late for implementation
freezing (30 Apr.).

• File rdoc_url.patch rdoc_url.patch added

=begin
I've attached a patch for this.

Note that the test_rdoc_markup_to_html_crossref makes the issue #3169 I just posted quite obvious. I changed the test only to fit the new naming scheme, and marked the wrong assertions accordingly.
