Ito, 28 October, 1998 - - Expect library adds IO class a method called expect(), which -does similar act to tcl's expect extension. - -The usage of the method is: - - IO#expect(pattern,timeout=9999999) - -where `pattern' is an instance of String or Regexp and `timeout' -is Fixnum, which can be omitted. - When the method is called without block, it waits until the -input which matches the pattern is obtained from the IO or the time -specified as the timeout passes. When the pattern is obtained from the -IO, the method returns an array. The first element of the array is the -entire string obtained from the IO until the pattern matches. The -following elements indicates the specific pattern which matched to the -anchor in the regular expression. If the method ends because of -timeout, it returns nil. - When the method is called with block, the array is passed as -the block parameter. |
