We still encountered a gc_sweep in our use of Ruby 1.8 on Linux (v8).

Yes, there are several (Ruby) threads working during this gc_sweep.

Hello,

A classic of evaluating strings is evaluating SQL code, and almost invariably it involves inserting into a SQL code string some values coming from the surrounding language. Those values must be converted appropriately and safely, e.g. strings must be properly quoted. Then the "?" placeholder has been introduced specially for that purpose. In this case, it's almost the same situation, but about embedding Ruby code into Ruby code. I wanted to show that there is prior art for that feature, and that it's in wide use. > You can't solve every programming issue by introducing a new feature > to the language, coming up with new (but usually already in-use) > syntax, or redefining concepts like runtime string evaluation to fit > one or two particular cases for which it isn't the right answer in the > first place. I've hit that problem before while writing a code generator in Ruby, 2 years ago. But I don't quite recall how I solved the problem, but it may have been using class variables or even global variables. Their use is pretty much justified when there's no other workaround that makes sense. > Speaking of "core language", I'm not sure what this is doing on this > list.

I thought ruby-core was shorthand for hardcore ruby, i mean with the black leather and such, for the kinkier of us. ;-) ________________________________________________________________ Mathieu Bouchard http://artengine.ca/matju
