Method: IO#reopen

Defined in:
io.c

#reopen(other_io) ⇒ self #reopen(path, mode = 'r', **opts) ⇒ self

Reassociates the stream with another stream, which may be of a different class. This method may be used to redirect an existing stream to a new destination.

With argument other_io given, reassociates with that stream:

# Redirect $stdin from a file.
f = File.open('t.txt')
$stdin.reopen(f)
f.close

# Redirect $stdout to a file.
f = File.open('t.tmp', 'w')
$stdout.reopen(f)
f.close

With argument path given, reassociates with a new stream to that file path:

$stdin.reopen('t.txt')
$stdout.reopen('t.tmp', 'w')

Optional keyword arguments opts specify:

Overloads:

  • #reopen(other_io) ⇒ self

    Returns:

    • (self)
  • #reopen(path, mode = 'r', **opts) ⇒ self

    Returns:

    • (self)
