Ruby 1.9.2 Released
Ruby 1.9.2 is now without beta or rc tag, but officially released. The only thing that I noticed that affects my code is that $: no longer includes current directory. Other than that, I’ve been using it for quite some time and love it.
Here’s the content from the release announcement:
Ruby 1.9.2 is mostly compatible with 1.9.1, except the
following changes:
* Many new methods
* New socket API (IPv6 support)
* New encodings
* Random class that supports various random number generators
* Time is reimplemented. There is no longer the year 2038 problem.
* some regexp enhancements
* $: no longer includes the current directory.
* dl is reimplemented on top of libffi.
* new psych library that wraps libyaml. You can use the library instead
of syck.
