RDoc v2.2.1 Release Notes
Release Date: 2008-09-24 // over 15 years ago-
🛠 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.
