[Doc] improve rdoc of Digest module

Added by stomar (Marcus Stollsteimer) over 10 years ago. Updated over 10 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Assignee:
Target version:
ruby -v:
ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [i686-linux]
[ruby-core:57902]

Description

Some improvements in mainly the module documentation:

  • provide more examples
  • provide a working example for the "bubble babble" encoding
  • fix dead link
  • fix some typos

(Right now the "bubble babble" thing is completely unclear or rather
essentially undocumented; also the linked to Wikipedia article has been
deleted. I also added examples for MD5--which is otherwise undocumented--,
for different encodings, and for creating a digest for a file.)

How do you handle backports? Will I have to open separate tickets as soon as this is merged to trunk?

Updated by zzak (zzak _) over 10 years ago

I will handle the backports after reviewing and committing this patch, it's larger so I need a little more time to review.

Thank you!
