rdoc version 2.4.2 has been released!

• RDoc Project Page
• RDoc Documentation
• RDoc Bug Tracker

RDoc is an application that produces documentation for one or more Ruby source files. RDoc includes the rdoc and ri tools for generating and displaying online documentation.

At this point in time, RDoc 2.x is a work in progress and may incur further API changes beyond what has been made to RDoc 1.0.1. Command-line tools are largely unaffected, but internal APIs may shift rapidly.

See RDoc for a description of RDoc’s markup and basic use.

Changes:

• 2 Minor Enhancements
  • Added --pipe for turning RDoc on stdin into HTML
  • Added rdoc/task.rb containing a replacement for rake/rdoctask.rb. Use RDoc::Task now instead of Rake::RDocTask.
• 10 Bug Fixes
  • Writing the ri cache file to the proper directory. Bug #24459 by Lars Christensen.
  • Possible fix for Dir::[] and Pathname interaction on 1.9. Bug #24650 by tiburon.
  • Fixed scanning constants for if/end, etc. pairs. Bug #24609 by Ryan Davis.
  • Fixed private methods in the C parser. Bug #24599 by Aaron Patterson.
  • Fixed display of markup on RDoc main page. Bug #24168 by rhubarb.
  • Fixed display of \ character in documentation proceeding words. Bug #22112 by James Gray. See RDoc for details.
  • Fixed parsing and display of arg params for some corner cases. Bug #21113 by Csiszár Attila.
  • Fixed links in Files box. Patch #24403 by Eric Wong.
  • Toplevel methods now appear in Object. Bug #22677 by Ryan Davis.
  • Added back --promiscuous which didn’t do anything you cared about. Why did you enable it? Nobody looked at that page! Oh, it warns, too.
