v2.2.1 Changes
September 24, 2008
🛠 This version provides some minor fixes and enhancements to 2.2.0 intended 💅 to polish RDoc for Ruby 1.9.1.
- 3 Minor Enhancements
  - Support for parsing RDoc from SWIG. Ruby patch #10742 by Gonzalo Garramuno, #13993 by Steven Jenkins.
  - Simple support for Perl POD documentation. Patch by Hugh Sasse.
  - Changed the default character set of RDoc's output from iso-8859-1 to utf-8.
- 🛠 9 Bug Fixes
  - Explicitly set the html template's text color, so that the generated documentation will display correctly on browsers with custom text and background color settings (patch by Luther Thompson).
  - Ensure that RDoc correctly will associate an alias and a method, even if it encounters the alias first because the alias lives in a different file.
  - Fix the parsing of multiline constants (patch by Chris Alfeld and Joel VanderWerf)
  - Make --exclude usuable. Ruby patch #11671 by Trans.
  - Detect inline C functions. Ruby Bug #11993 by Florian Frank.
  - Fix an issue in which RDoc might not document a class' superclass correctly if the class was defined in multiple files and depending on the order in which RDoc processed the files. This should ensure that the child class -> parent class relationship is correct in ri documentation, allowing ri to lookup inherited methods (i.e., File.read).
  - Stop ri from crashing when it looks for a completely bogus method (i.e., File#reada). Now, ri exits with a helpful error message.
  - Fixed missing display of constant values in ri.
  - Fixed display of constants in ri's html output.
