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.

- [Feature #18035] Introduce general model/semantic for immutable by default.
- 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| ...}
?
- Currently,

- [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) 10 months 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) 10 months 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) 10 months 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) 10 months 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.
