I've heard it is preferable to use `$stderr` (the current standard error stream) instead of `STDERR` (the original standard error stream) as `warn` and similar methods use `$stderr`. As `$stderr` can be reassigned, there is no guarantee that `$stderr.p` would be valid. I suppose you could have `STDERR.p` write to `$stderr`, but that may be confusing. It may be more generally useful to add a method to `IO` that did the equivalent of `puts obj.inspect`. ---------------------------------------- Feature #15112: Introdudce the new singleton method STDERR.p https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15112#change-74011 * Author: mrkn (Kenta Murata) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) * Target version: ---------------------------------------- I sometimes write `STDERR.puts obj.inspect` to print debug message to standard error. I want to write it as `STDERR.p obj`. It can be realized by introducing `p` singleton method in `STDERR` object. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
