* URI::InvalidURIError is converted to OpenURI::HTTPError if an
invalid HTTP URI is given.
== Changes since the 1.8.6 release
=== Configuration changes
* default C flags
Some C compiler flags may be added by default depending on your
environment. Specify optflags=.. and warnflags=.. as necessary to
override them.
* vendor_ruby directory
A new library directory named `vendor_ruby' is introduced in
addition to `site_ruby'. The idea is to separate libraries
installed by the package system (`vendor') from manually (`site')
installed libraries preventing the former from getting overwritten
by the latter, while preserving the user option to override vendor
libraries with site libraries. (`site_ruby' takes precedence over
`vendor_ruby')
If you are a package maintainer, make each library package configure
the library passing the `--vendor' option to `extconf.rb' so that
the library files will get installed under `vendor_ruby'.
You can change the directory locations using configure options such
as `--with-sitedir=DIR' and `--with-vendordir=DIR'.

=== Interpreter Implementation
* passing a block to a Proc [experimental]
This implementation in current shape is known to be buggy/broken,
especially with nested block invocation. Take this as an
experimental feature.
* stack trace
On non-SystemStackError exception, full stack trace is shown.
=== Compatibility issues (excluding feature bug fixes)
* String#slice! had some unintentional bugs and they have been fixed
because either they disagreed with documentation or their respective
behavior of #slice. Unfortunately, this causes some
incompatibilities in the following (somewhat rare) cases.
* #slice! no longer expands the array when an out-of-boundary value
is given.
# Ruby 1.8.6
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(4,0) #=> nil
a #=> [1,2,nil,nil]
# Ruby 1.8.7
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(4,0) #=> nil
a #=> [1,2]
* #slice! no longer raises an exception but returns nil when a
negative length or out-of-boundary negative position is given.
# Ruby 1.8.6
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(1,-1) #=> (raises IndexError)
a.slice!(-5,1) #=> (raises IndexError)
# Ruby 1.8.7
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(1,-1) #=> nil
a.slice!(-5,1) #=> nil
* String#to_i, String#hex and String#oct no longer accept a sequence
of underscores (`__') as part of a number.
# Ruby 1.8.6
'1__0'.to_i #=> 10
'1__0'.to_i(2) #=> 2 # 0b10
'1__0'.oct #=> 8 # 010
'1__0'.hex #=> 16 # 0x10
# Ruby 1.8.7
'1__0'.to_i #=> 1
'1__0'.to_i(2) #=> 1
'1__0'.oct #=> 1
'1__0'.hex #=> 1
The old behavior was inconsistent with Ruby syntax and considered as
a bug.
* date
* Date.parse
'##.##.##' (where each '#' is a digit) is now taken as 'YY.MM.DD'
instead of 'MM.DD.YY'. While the change may confuse you, you can
always use Date.strptime() when you know what you are dealing
with.
* stringio
* StringIO#each_byte
The return value changed from nil to self. This is what the
document says and the same as each_line() does.
* tempfile
* The file name format has changed. No dots are included by default
in temporary file names any more. See above for how to specify a
suffix.
* uri
* See above for details.
== Changes since the 1.8.5 release
=== New platforms/build tools support
* IA64 HP-UX
* Visual C++ 8 SP1
* autoconf 2.6x
=== Global constants
* RUBY_PATCHLEVEL
New constant since 1.8.5-p1.
=== Library updates (outstanding ones only)
* builtin classes
* New method: Kernel#instance_variable_defined?
* New method: Module#class_variable_defined?
* New feature: Dir::glob() can now take an array of glob patterns.
* date
* Updated based on date2 4.0.3.
* digest
* New internal APIs for C and Ruby.
* Support for autoloading.
require 'digest'
# autoloads digest/md5
md = Digest::MD5.digest("string")
* New digest class methods: file
* New digest instance methods: clone, reset, new, inspect,
digest_length (alias size or length), block_length()
* New library: digest/bubblebabble
* New function: Digest(name)
* fileutils
* New option for FileUtils.cp_r(): :remove_destination
* nkf
* Updated based on nkf as of 2007-01-28.
* thread
* Replaced with much faster mutex implementation in C. The former
implementation, which is slow but considered to be stable, is
available with a configure option `--disable-fastthread'.
* tk
* Updated Tile extension support based on Tile 0.7.8.
* Support --without-X11 configure option for non-X11 versions of
Tcl/Tk (e.g. Tcl/Tk Aqua).
* New sample script: irbtkw.rbw -- IRB on Ruby/Tk. It has no trouble
about STDIN blocking on Windows.
* webrick
* New method: WEBrick::Cookie.parse_set_cookies()
=== Compatibility issues (excluding feature bug fixes)
* builtin classes
* String#intern now raises SecurityError when $SAFE level is greater
than zero.
* date
* Time#to_date and Time#to_datetime are added as private methods.
They cause name conflict error in ActiveSupport 1.4.1 and prior,
which comes with Rails 1.2.2 and prior. Updating ActiveSupport
and/or Rails to the latest versions fixes the problem.
* digest
* The constructor does no longer take an initial string to feed.
The following examples show how to migrate:
# Before
md = Digest::MD5.new("string")
# After (works with any version)
md = Digest::MD5.new.update("string")
# Before
hd = Digest::MD5.new("string").hexdigest
# After (works with any version)
hd = Digest::MD5.hexdigest("string")
* Digest::Base#==
* self == string
Automatic detection between binary digest values and hexadecimal
digest values has been dropped. It is always assumed that a
hexadecimal digest value is given for comparison.
* self == md
Digest objects are compared by the resulting digest values, not
by the exact vector states.
* fileutils
* A minor implementation change breaks Rake <=0.7.1.
Updating Rake to 0.7.2 or higher fixes the problem.
* tk
* Tk::X_Scrollable (Y_Scrollable) is renamed to Tk::XScrollable
(YScrollable). Tk::X_Scrollable (Y_Scrollable) is still available,
but it is an alias name.

=== Interpreter Implementation
* passing a block to a Proc [experimental]
This implementation in current shape is known to be buggy/broken,
especially with nested block invocation. Take this as an
experimental feature.
* stack trace
On non-SystemStackError exception, full stack trace is shown.
=== Compatibility issues (excluding feature bug fixes)
* String#slice! had some unintentional bugs and they have been fixed
because either they disagreed with documentation or their respective
behavior of #slice. Unfortunately, this causes some
incompatibilities in the following (somewhat rare) cases.
* #slice! no longer expands the array when an out-of-boundary value
is given.
# Ruby 1.8.6
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(4,0) #=> nil
a #=> [1,2,nil,nil]
# Ruby 1.8.7
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(4,0) #=> nil
a #=> [1,2]
* #slice! no longer raises an exception but returns nil when a
negative length or out-of-boundary negative position is given.
# Ruby 1.8.6
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(1,-1) #=> (raises IndexError)
a.slice!(-5,1) #=> (raises IndexError)
# Ruby 1.8.7
a = [1,2]
a.slice!(1,-1) #=> nil
a.slice!(-5,1) #=> nil
* String#to_i, String#hex and String#oct no longer accept a sequence
of underscores (`__') as part of a number.
# Ruby 1.8.6
'1__0'.to_i #=> 10
'1__0'.to_i(2) #=> 2 # 0b10
'1__0'.oct #=> 8 # 010
'1__0'.hex #=> 16 # 0x10
# Ruby 1.8.7
'1__0'.to_i #=> 1
'1__0'.to_i(2) #=> 1
'1__0'.oct #=> 1
'1__0'.hex #=> 1
The old behavior was inconsistent with Ruby syntax and considered as
a bug.
* date
* Date.parse
'##.##.##' (where each '#' is a digit) is now taken as 'YY.MM.DD'
instead of 'MM.DD.YY'. While the change may confuse you, you can
always use Date.strptime() when you know what you are dealing
with.
* stringio
* StringIO#each_byte
The return value changed from nil to self. This is what the
document says and the same as each_line() does.
* tempfile
* The file name format has changed. No dots are included by default
in temporary file names any more. See above for how to specify a
suffix.
* uri
* See above for details.
